      For schools with single digit vacancies and facing a possible ballot.


      Concord Primary: 9 vs 22 applicants
      St Gabriel’s Primary: 8 vs 18 applicants
      CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel: 7 vs 11 applicants
      Fern Green Primary: 7 vs 12 applicants
      Haig Girls School: 3 vs 4 applicants
      CHIJ (Kellock): 1 vs 4 applicants
      Greenwood Primary: 1 vs 13 applicants
      Springdale Primary: 1 vs 7 applicants

      For IJ Kellock and Haig Girls, I hope the school admin has enough sense to call these parents up to avoid a ballot unless really necessary.

Hope it helps u too. Wisest way is to pick from those with more vacancies (and is not too far away by public transport/private car). Don’t be raving mad to pick a school with only 1 vacancy left!!!

          Why parents would choose balloting in 2CS is beyond my understanding.

          Nevertheless, i wish parents going for balloting all the best! Last day today.

            It’s also beyond understanding why the official stance is not to release the number of candidates by distance. The parents have to rely on the goodwill of the school staff. Parents may not have all they need to make an informed decision.

              Hi all, Unsuccessful at St Andrew's Junior... 😞
              Looking at Canossa Catholic and Geylang Methodist now...
              Cant seems to find any infos on CCPS & GMPS also...
              CCPS is a small cohort of 120 intake and left with 40 vacancies and and GMPS of 270 and left with 42 vacancies...
              Is there anyone who has the above information on these 2 schools?
              Or any advice will be greatly appreciated...

              I have friends with kids from Canossa, for last year's PSLE results, there were a few kids scoring 260-280 announced during PSLE cert collection. Class size are small, about 25kids/class.
              My friend for this year's snake cohort chose Canossa over Tanjong Katong/St Stephens/Ngee Ann/Geylang Methodist in phase 2C primarily for small class size

              Yes we went for the Chit chat session in May this year. Overall all looks good though... Maybe is because of the school layout that people avoided choosing that school? The exterior do looks old but interior is quite ok as they renovated few years back also... it is a very nice and cosy environment for parents settling down for a smaller school for their child. Another thing i like is the student care that is within school compound and is under Canossaville themselves while GMPS is outsourced and named kidz TreeHouse student care but there are criteria for enrolmenrt. Another one is Christalite student care centre which is at the void deck beside it which heard is also full???

              We went down to CCPS yesterday and was told last year there were 5 classes for P1 meaning less than 25 per class which we felt is good for my child too.

              For GMPS, they have 8 classes for P1 which seems like a very big cohort... they just renovated in recent years so people will tends to choose GMPS instead??

              Think both school will not face any balloting for 2Cs but if looking at the exterior and bigger school GMPS will be filled up today.
              :?

                ‘Small’ schools are attractive in a number of ways - small classes, cosy environment, more attention etc.


                However, there are some limitations as well - lack of space to roam, limited CCA options, etc

                  Haiz... True... CCPS doesnt have much CCA options etc... Total vacancies for CCPS is 34 and GMPS is 15...
                  would the school disclosed on the number of applicants or they just give estimation?
                  :?:
