Hello,
Any parents can tell me which are the better primary schools in Commonwealth area.
Thanks

You may consider New Town Primary around Commonwealth area.They merged with Ghim Moh Primary & now offering single session! If not, Queenstown would be also another good option.

My son is born in 2004. I wanted to arrange for him to go Nan Hua but we will have to do PV there, thus will be opting for Clementi Primary School instead as my husband was from Clementi North Pri which merged with Clementi Pri some years back.


One question I have is, is it worth to have my husband to sign up as alumni in Clementi Pri Sch since we can register my son under ‘parent is an old boy’ scheme. Will he get a chance if we register him under this phrase, or under the other phrase, whereby the parent is an alumni member? We do not stay in Clementi but my PIL are, so we are thinking of arranging for him to attend at this sch.

Old boy + alumni = phase 2A1. Old boy without alumni = 2A2. Based on past years trends, all applicants under both 2A1 and 2A2 get a place in all schools. Hence there is no necessisty to join the alumni actually. But true to the KS spirit, u may want to join to give urself peace of mind in case there is a sudden surge in applications?

Luanee, thanks for your reply. I was also thinking of asking my husband to join alumni to have this pc of mind, but his pri has merged with Clementi Pri after he left, thus not sure if its appropriate to join alumni of this sch. I think I will have to contact the sch to check it out. Still planning if I should go for this neighbourhood sch, or Rulang in JW.

U can start enquiring now, or nearer end of this year. Do note NHPS is extremely selective in their PV intake. So pls do have a back-up plan.

I was previously from Clementi Town Pri and I've checked with the Sch as my girl will be pri 1 next year, both Ex-Clementi North and Ex-Clementi Town are qualify for Phase 2A2. Base on the sch record, I don't think there is a need of joining alumni.

Hi 2Nice,

May I check with you, do you happen to still have your report book? My husband lost his, and I have not checked how to go about registering my son in the sch with or without report book. Currently still deciding on about either Clement P, or Rulang P, and possibility of shifting to Clementi or not. Headache...

Thanks for the thinker. I kept thinking of report book, and never switch to think of the PSLE Certificate! What bird brain I have. OK, I do think he will have that. Need to search that out from his cupboard. Thanks so much!
