rejoice137:We bought a place in Bishan, hoping to get into CHS but gave up when we saw the number of places left.Well said. My hubby and I bought the flat at Bishan many years ago not knowing the situation. At least we did not move to Bishan just to get in CHS. I am sure there are parents moving here just for that school only to find out there is a very slim chance to get in. Do hope that the situation will change in the future.superjack:
That's the reason why parents who's genuine staying around the school have problem sending their kids in. while parent who are staying far away from the schools are taking the advantage of clans & religions status to get in. Especially for parents who are not fortunate to move around the island even they know the chance of getting in is very slim. Really pity for them as they are the one who are being stucked without much choices left.
Well, not only are the new property development allowing parents to try for places in CHS. Apparently, there are many foreigners who went 1 step ahead by joining grass root so that they can stay ahead.
