Marymount Convent

[Vicjam84]

Hi, I’m a newbie here. I’ve been reading the forum and feels that MC is a really good fit for my daughter.

Would like to find out more if PR’s over 2km would be able to get in easily in Phase 2C, especially when there is now the cap on PR’s? We would prefer not to move but if need be then we will make the necessary work.

Hi everyone


I saw from past statistics that it is rather easy to enter MC at Phase 2C. Just want to confirm that it is so (that I am not reading the info wrongly). Also, to ask why MC does not seem so popular with parents.

In the past only, Yes, easy to enter Marymount convent.



But ever since Moe imposed the quota, not easy for PR anymore unless u happen to stay within the distance, whereby no need to ballot. Thus, still need to prepare another "stand-by" school.

Marymount Convent is a good school.

It is not popular,
because
no affliation advantage to Secondary schools, unlike the ( CHIJ, Paya Lebar Methodist, Methodist Girls) "All-Girls" primary schools.

Would it be easy for SC in Phase 2C (out of 2km)? Am considering it for this year’s P1 registration.

Compare to neighboring girls’ schools such as CHIJ SNGS, CHIJ TP or even those slightly further afield such as CHIJ OLGC or PLMGS, MCS comes with no affiliation bonus.

Furthermore, there’s also an issue of several popular schools like PCPS and ATS sucking away most of the oxygen.

Thanks for the reply but it’s sg50 babies this year… Highest population for baby birth rates… Keeping finger crossed.

hi may i know any parents here got their daughters in P1 this year through phase 2c(s). Saw last year, phase 2c(s) there was balloting. was the balloting within 1-2 km and above 2km.


looking to see if i should go chij tp through phase 2c and backup marymount.

And for parents in marymount convent, how is the culture in the school?
