All About Church/Clan/Society Membership

[hquek]

Sefina,


first you have to see which phase you fall under. If you are under Phase 2B (that’s clan, parent volunteer, grassroots), distance may come into play. top priority: less than 1km; if there’s more spaces, then 1km - 2km, next 2km and above.

This distance thing will repeat in Phase 2C (ie unrelated to school).

Whatever spaces left from the earlier phases will be divided equally between 2B and 2C.

One more question :? if we not sign up any VP,we have the chance to enrol our kid to the primary between 1km and 2km from school?

Dear Sefina,

Dont be a PV also can. You will also be able to enrol, your chance is higher than those who stay 2km.

I cant say you will be 100% into the sch, there are few phrase infront of you. All I can advise is your chance is high, provided there are not too many VP or people getting into the schools. Dont forget, there are ex-parents and now they want their kids in. Some will do volunteer at SHHK, some will ....... to get into the sch.

Since the enrichment is in Thomson, then it will be better for you to stay stay in the northern rather than city.

My son will have to wake up latest by 10am, fresh milk the lunch at 10.30am. 11am bus here. back home 7.30pm, dinner till 8pm. play rest talk etc. All activity will end by 10pm then zzzzz.

You didnt think about CCA! If you want her to sign up any enrichment programme in AiTong, then who will ferry her to sch? Do you drive? Sch bus dont have this facility yet.

Overall, what I can say is, AiTong is a good sch, to me education is the most important thing. Please discuss with your daughter, respect her decision. If she choose to be with you in Duxton, find a school there. If she is staying with grandparents, then let her study in AiTong.

Hi,

She is eyeing at AiTong.
You can read her story from the start.

[Sefina]

let say if i register my daughter near to my working place is it possible?

Hi Sefina


You can register in any school you want but you need to weigh the chances of getting into the school as not to waste yr chance.

By the way, the school will base on yr IC address to determine the distance from school to home.

So logically, you should choose a school that gives you the ‘best’ chances of getting in. Otherwise, you are wasting your chance.

Do look at the balloting statistics from previous thread to understand more.

[Piggymum]

Possible but MOE won’t take into consideration the distance between school and workplace. if you have norelationship withthe school (eg not ex-student, not a PVetc) then you will fall under phase 2C.

Hi all... I am trying to gather data here to provide help for parents who are thinking of qualifying for Phase 2B under the affiliated clan/church scheme.


Can parents help state what they know by saying the clan/church and its associated school?

I'll start:

Hokkien Huay Kuan -> Tao Nan, Ai Tong, Kong Hwa, Chong Fu, Nan Chiau

My younger brother was from kong hwa and boy the school is so much better than mine...they dont ask for donations like my school every other month....so next time i wish to put my future kid here....haha guess what im in the midst of getting unit at lor 32 (just 100m) away from kong hwa
its by far a coincidence....
