      Thank you, Chief!
      Poi Ching does balloting for those <1km too and it seems like phase 2C is always oversubscribed too 😩
      Do you have 2C(S) plan in case you are not success in the phase 2C?

          Do you think balloting is conducted on a Friday since govt agencies don’t work weekends? And we get results Monday? What time do they usually send out the sms Monday?


          Also how does the balloting work? Every kid gets assigned a random number and the numbers go through a system to be selected? Or just a one-click excel spreed sheet say 40 choose 30 probability on the names? Thanks

            I think the balloting is done on Friday morning and parents should get an SMS on the same day 🙂 It's unlikely MOE would withhold the results until Monday.

            As to how the balloting is done... who knows. I think very few people care.

                The SMS typically comes 8am sharp on results day. I remember because everytime results day will have people mass leaving those whatapps / telegram chat groups for those prospective parents.

                @Chief asking for a friend :
                You know the Subjects Offered listing in the MOE website?

                What if the school doesn't offer a certain subject eg Foundation Chinese?

                Does a child who have to drop to a Foundation Subject which is not in the \"Subjects Offered\" list have to leave that school during Subject selection at end of P4?

                  No need to leave the primary school.

                  But, the child may have to go to the next, closest nearby primary school that do conduct \"Foundation\" Chinese subject lessons, each week for lessons.

                  For a start, perhaps,
                  find out from
                  either

                  your kid's school Chinese HOD
                  or

                  call up MOE, directly :-

                  1) ask,which is the closest, nearby primary school, to your current primary school, that happen to conduct \"Foundation\" Chinese lessons ?


                  2) after found out the name of this primary school,
                  then,

                  call up this school directly,
                  request to speak to the Chinese HOD in charge.

                  Ask the Chinese HOD, every week from Monday to Friday :-

                  a) Total, how many \"Foundation\" Chinese lessons are conducted, on per week basis ?

                  b) which week day & timing, is it conducted, every week ?
                  Each lesson, duration how long ?

                  c) how often, does this nearby primary school conduct Term tests, for \"Foundation Chinese \" ?

                        My guess


                        If 1 extra:
                        -could be the odd number left over.
                        Example
                        61 left after 2A —> 2b gets 20, 2c gets 41.

                        If more than 1:
                        Say a child registered and got a place in 2A for school A. (Or even phase 1)

                        During final hour of 2B registration, cancelled the 2A for school A and applied school B.
                        (A couple of such examples will cause 2-3 extra in 2C.)


                        Possible?
