marzipan:

With regards to the waiting list, can i put my child on the waiting list of sch A (under Phase 2C) once I know he has no chance to get in and then proceed to register him in my backup sch? Thanks!

Yes, you should put your child on the waiting list of School A should the balloting turn out unsuccessful. When P2CS opens for registration, you need to register your child in the backup school, if the school still has vacancies in this phase.

Thanks qms for your reply.
Sorry I didn't make myself clear earlier. What I wanted to ask was whether sch A will entertain my appeal to get into the sch if during the last few hours of Phase 2C I know I wont have a chance at sch A at all and I proceed to register for sch B instead under Phase 2C. Thanks!

During registration process, no.
But after the whole registration process is over and they have vacancies (due to last min withdrawals, etc), then yes, they will start contacting those on waitlist.

Once registered, if no. Of local living within 1km exceed the no. Of vacancies, you do have to go for balloting. Those locals living with 1-2km absolutely no chance. So you in fact still have 50% chance of getting in lah, so not unlucky.

My sil said to put your child on waiting list once you know you are balloted out. Don't waste your time moaning, quickly grab the teacher in charge of handling the waiting list to put the name down.

All the best from my sil n 我。 :xedfingers:

While put on waiting list, i still have to go for phase2C Supplementary for other school first right ?

finger crosssssssssss

As far as I know, there is no restrictions or requirements imposed on any1 who wish to be put on waiting list in any school.

Yes, you need to go for p2cs at the backup school that still has vacancies even if you are on waiting list for nc.

No one knows when a place would be made available in nc for those on waiting list.

Received the confirmation letter yesterday.

My DS is registered in phase 2A(1) and we received the confirmation letter on Wednesday indicating the Orientation date and time.

Did not manage to get recommendation letter for NCPS, now gotta wait for P2C... balloting results will only be out on 6th Aug 2013. If not balloted, I would not be able to get into compassvale pri which is a road across my house.. utlimately gotta send my gal to a far away school which is not within my plan ..

No restriction to be put on the waiting list of any school but for any vacancy that becomes available for P1, the priority goes to the PVs who failed at the ballots, then comes those with connections (clans/ church / grassroots) before they consider those from Phase 2C or those who didn't even try balloting (and this is possibly based on distance from home as well).

For transfer, it's usually easier in P2 or P3 coz good results can be used instead of those \"priorities\"...
