Lexy,


Thanks you very much

Lexy,


Can update the TUR for Choa Chu Kang?

I am contemplating between Choa Chu Kang Pri and Concord Pri. Any feedback for these 2 schools?

For PR, your strategy must be: choose the less popular schools which the SCs don’t want. Don’t fight with the SCs, you will lose.

Your safest school for Phase 2C which is not too far is Teck Whye Primary. Even De La Salle and Unity Primary are quite popular in certain years (look at the Take Up Rate, TUR, in phase 2C, it’s >90%! Meaning the whole school is almost full!)

If you need a backup for Phase 2C(S), it will have to be those unpopular schools even further away like Yew Tee Pri or Kranji Pri.[/quote]

If base on the last year chart, it is mean that if I select de la salle on phase 2C, even in PR and >2km, I still secure get the seat as they still have vacancy on phase 2C(S).
But due to this year dragon baby a lot, maybe chance will be lower. Unless I wan to try and if fail to get the seat then need to select Teck whye primary school already. As I found that the take up rate is even low at phase 2C(S)

PR , girl applying in Phase 2C for:


Under 1km
1. Concord primary school
2. Choa Chu Kang primary school

1km-2km
3. Southview primary school

Over 2 km
4. De la Salle
5. Teck whey primary school

Going on historical data last year, all three schools need to be balloting for SC in phase 2C. Although before that have chance for PR balloting. What would be my strategy for securing a place at one of these the schools?

Or should I directly choose school is >2km in phase 2C instead of <2km? Is this a good strategies?

Many thanks in advance.

No, it is not a good strategy.

You need to find some schools which have a very safe chance for PRs.

Is that mean should I directly to apply school >2km, option 4 and 5 which is still available for phase 2C(s) registration from last year historic, no balloting on phase 2C? But it was 2 km away from my house, it is ok?
So far the nearest school is all in my list above from 1 to 5. Others school is even more far away..
