Hi QMS


I cloaked my hrs last year but no letter… Now is holiday so nobody picks up tel in sch. Should I go to sch directly once their sch reopen? Do they mail out the letter which states we did PV there?

From my understanding, PVs don't receive their letters so early because they are given until end of June to clock the required 40 hours. You may like to approach the school only when the registration starts. Phase 1 will start during the week of 05 Jul 10. So, perhaps you would like to approach the school for the letter then?

From what witty22 mentioned, if RMPS really took in so many PVs, yes, it is very highly likely that there will be balloting in P2B this year. Since you stay > 2 km away from the school, it is better for you to come up with a contingency plan now, rather than later.

I called the school. They said the letter should be sent in few weeks time.

The folder to clock in your hours after the PV was quiet thick too.

Normally the school would mail out the PV letter like 1 week before the Phase 2B registration If not you can always get the PV letter from the school admin & then proceed with the Phase 2B registration on the same day.


For those who had PV for RMPS, it is best to ask how many PV letter are being given out. If really the case of being 60 PV’s & with estimate like 5 Grassroot would be joining the Phase 2B , very likely that would be balloting. Last year RMPS have 240 places, after Phase 1, 2A(1), it left only 120.

Therefore 60 would be in Phase 2B & 60 would be in Phase 2C.
So there maybe a balloting situation if 60PV’s + GR application. Hopefully RMPS don’t reduce by 1 class size to 210.

That's the one opposite The Pinnacle.

Have been following the progress of their construction. Wonder whether they can make it in time? :?

I have a vantage view cos my kid's icl class is next block. Very very fast the progress. At this speed, nothing is impossible.

Guess the contractor should be able to complete the project on time if not they would be have to pay of Liquidated Damages (LD) like $5000-$10000 per day depends on the tender contract document. The school maybe specially cater to Pinaccle Duxtons HDB residents.
