check-in! my daughter was born in 2013.

We stay in Jurong west and now starting looking for information on school as below:

Within 1 km
1. West Groove
2. Frontier
3. Westwood
4. Jurong west primary

Checked year 2017 allocation results. https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/article/jurong-west/
Schools above within 1km also need balloting for SCs phase 2C.

too competitive for those schools?

Thanks

Hi everyone!


My boy is due for P1 registration in two year's time and I am surprised to see this thread up already.
I stay in Bishan and knowing the competitiveness of the schools around here, hubby and I decided to just rely on fate (and a lot of luck) and wait till Phase 2C to register our boy.

Our Top 3 choices:
1st choice: Pei Chun Public (within 1 Km)
2nd choice: Kheng Cheng School (1-2km)
3rd choice: Guangyang Pri (within 1 km and walking distance)

Ultimately, we believe all schools are good schools and there are different aspects of the schools that we like (e.g. culture, values and CCAs)

Come and share share your thoughts on the school choices that you have for your children.

Hi Parents

My child was born in Mar 2013. We stay in Kovan and looking at the primary schools near to/in this area like Rosyth, Xin Min, Holy Innocents, St Andrews. Glad to have this thread to share our views in preparing for Pri school registration.

My thoughts: Go for Kheng Cheng. It's getting more popular than Pei Chun. And Pei Chun often has balloting for those within 1km. If you go for balloting and fail, you can only go to Guangyang.

Just curious, since you live in Bishan, why don't you consider Kuo Chuan? Is it not within 1km?

Hi, My daughter Born 2013. And we are PR. I’m staying within 1KM of St’Hilda’s. How are the chances of getting in Hilda’s for a PR in P2B?

[phtthp]

Balloting for SC less than 1 km, at St Hilda primary, under Phase 2C. Hence, zero chance for PR. You may try other schools instead


For Phase 2B : whether PR got chance or not, u need to refer past years' balloting trend.

usually, for 2B : balloting arise for SC, staying beyond 2km, at St Hilda. Hence, PR zero chance.

Hi to all parents…anyone can advise the standard for Hougang Primary? My boy in the year of 2013.


We are also sourcing for houses hence really in a dilemma…

To me St Hilda primary is pretty hard to get in..

I am a Singapore Citizen living in Switzerland. I am a naturalized citizen and hence find the process of P1 registration quite new and complex. We are planning to relocate to Singapore in 2018 and will go through the P1 registration in 2019. As I can choose where to live, I am wondering how we should make this choice. We had planned to live in the Bukit Timah Area as there are a number of good schools. It seems like it would be best to live within a km of a school of choice. Am I correct in assuming that? Any tips on this would be greatly appreciated.
