Anyone receive email from SJI DSA?

Hi, can I know if there’s any mummies who have P1 textbooks to give away ? Appreciate if you can pm me. Will arrange for pick up thanks.

In fact nicnac, they need not cry foul cos the current system already benefit those who are staying less than 1 km first then followed by 1-2km… don’t forget under 2c phase SC home proximity is the only determinant for placement provided there’s no oversubscription for those staying under 1km.

It’s quite different ball games here as distance does affect the outcome of balloting and placement here. I do sympathise with the 17 parents who are subject to this helpless situation. I strongly feel that MOE should address this and perhaps implement different registration dates under phase 2c eg. Those staying less than 1km to register on Day1 , 1-2km on day 2 and lastly more than2km on final day. This would certainly provide a fairer system for all and one can make timely decision.

Hi Timtim and Lukemummy, thank you both so much for your advice. Yes, I’m in a way considered luckier than some parents… Would have to reconsider for my son’s enrollment now. However, this would also mean that I will to put my daughter in another school and it may be cumbersome to fetch and send them to school daily esp in P3 onwards when they have CCAs in diff schools. Hmmm, I guess we can’t have best of both worlds.

Hi Timtim and Lukemummy, I might be enrolling my son under phase 2A2 at NCPS for next year intake and would like to know is the stress level manageable there? As my husband was also an old boy of SJIJ and I’m still deciding where to put my son as we have a daughter 1 year younger (born in 2009)too. Both schools are not near as we stay in the east…
