Heard that Ai Tong will be moving to a temp location for upgrading. Is it true and when?
No such thing lah. They upgraded some years back and completed an indoor sorts facility a few months ago. -
Hi, I’m new to this forum and in phase 2C registration for my son. I’m within 1-2 km to Aitong. I cant decide whether I want to try for Aitong as I might not get a chance to ballot. 'cos past years balloting for phase 2C was only for those within 1 km.
Can anyone out there give me some advice if I should try Aitong??
Thanks for your time! -

Judging from the just concluded phase 2B registration, I don't think you would even have the chance to register, i.e. balloting is likely to occur again for those staying within 1km.Hi, I'm new to this forum and in phase 2C registration for my son.

Would suggest that you monitor the situation for the first 2 days of phase 2C registration and at the same time think of a 2nd choice school to register, if you have not already done so.

Will monitor the situation. Just a thought the birth rate 2003: 37485 compared to previous 3 yrs (2000: 46997, 2001: 41451, 2002: 40760) was much lesser. Wishfull thinking on my part that I might have 0.1 chance of getting balloting within 1-2km…dreaming lo. To be realistic, I cannot decide the contigency plan of 2nd choice sch. What neighbour (AMK/Bishan) sch do u suggest?

I agree with Tulip. Even if by some rare chance that Aitong is balloting for 1-2km this year, the competition would be very great. U have to gauge on the last day of 2C of ur chances.

Where do you reside? Bishan or AMK? It really depends on your own criteria in deciding the school to register for your child. Also, if you want a secured place or don't mind risking a ballot. You could consider Kuo Chuan in Bishan or for AMK, Anderson Primary. -
