Hi, is the avg APP solely based on the app by parents who are <1km for Rosyth. I note that there are 80 vacancies available for phase 2C, one of the highest to date, and am expecting 2X the no of application.

I think you are right. For Rosyth this year, likely to ballot within 1km, and with a 1 in 2 chance.

Ready for battle, 156 applied for 80 seats. ..more exciting than GE. . . .

Could I ask more about St Gabriel? I would like to enrol my son in St Gabriel should we fail to get into Kuo Chuan.

The good news is that there is a definite downward trend in demand for Rosyth through the years, and especially so for this year in Phases up to Phase 2B, so it is possible that it may go below 200% this year.

Hi Chief, I have the same reading as you. Would like to hear your personal view on this trend? pm me if necessary.
Btw my son is in next year under 2B.

Also, for those who intend to shift near the school, do consider carefully.
As the single session change will result in demand for more classroom space and if vertical expansion is not feasible, a relocation option may kick in. Anything is possible to happen.
IMHO.
