      Why should we have to waste time and energy to run around when this information may be easily disseminated? Parents can use this info to plan their 'strategy' properly.

      Because MOE never organises GEMS for the staff? 😉 :siam:

        maybe they don't feel the pain & anxiety of normal parents, thus failed to recognise the need to do so :?

          Phase 2C is for those who do not qualify under the earlier phases. Hope parents would have 90% confirmed where they are planning to register after looking at the vacancies left after 2B. For those planning to register in 'HOT' schools, hope you are staying within 1km.


          All the best.
          I wonder...
          assuming no chance to ballot for Phase 2C >2KM...
          assuming the parents dunno they have no chance to ballot (Got such parents?)
          does these popular school REJECT these applicants?
          Or the sch just accepts...
          and subsequently inform the parent to apply for other schs in Phase2C Sup?

            There has been an increase of projects around HOT schools, as well as parents moving within 1km...also an increase in PRs too. Staying within 1km is safer, but still not guaranteed. All the best to you parents registering under 2C.

              *If school knows parents are staying > than 2km when vacancies are limited, then school should inform these parents to look at others which have more vacancies, because these parents will not even have a chance to ballot at all.

                Yes got!! I can vomit blood explaining to that colleague of mine.. seems like I more worried for him then himself.. he say he doesn't want all those leftover in 2Csupp but wanna try balloting. Worse case go find MP woh... :faint:

                I only found out yesterday that not all schools will tell you that you have to try elsewhere.. the onus is on the parents to check..

                  RRMummy,

                  MOST parents NOW will look at vacancies available at 2C before deciding (assuming lah), or else reach heart-breaking moment when schools turn them away even before registering.

                  If don’t want to go to 2C supp, then there are still schools available at 2C for registration. Alamak, MP also cannot help if that parent die die wants to register at XX school if staying > than 2km. Then MP will tell him, ‘all schools are the same’.

                      At 2C, schools should tell parents their chances. Very evil not to do so…esp since some parents are 1st timers at registration.


                      But if there are stubborn parents, I wish them all the best if still insist lah. They think MPs are angels.

                        janet_lee88, he can't even be bothered to find out. Can't even be bothered to find out WHEN to register and which Phase. That also I have to tell him. He say he's not free, just go any day can.. :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

                        Die die wanna go try balloting (heavily oversubscribed) and if not successfully balloted in still die, die wanna aim a school which confirm aft Phase 2C ZERO places when come Phase 2Csupp :roll:

                        If MP help 1.. I think all hell will break loose..
