Hi ChiefKiasu,

Good morning.

I read that you mentioned that for the past 9 years Kong Hwa, SC within 1 km requires balloting.

May I know where and how can I find this information?

This will be really useful if I decide to move house nearer to the school.

So far we are looking at PLMGS Pri and some other schools in marine parade or Geylang.

Thank you!

We would like to seek your kindly advice:

We just received the parent volunteer program for both Geylang Methodist Primary and Haig Girls’ school. Which school is better overall? How about academic perspective?

Really many thanks for your help!

Hi any feedback on gmps? Cant find much feedback. When I called the school to enquire, I was asked to check out the yearbook instead.

My child had graduated from this school. Overall, I am satisfied with the school as my child had a wonderful time there. Most of the teachers who had taught my child are responsible. I heard that the new principal is much stricter than the previous one. The school has more facilities now after the upgrading. I feel that no matter which school parents put their child in, they should also play a part in their child's development. Don't leave everything to the school. With efforts put in together by the school and parents, I believe most children will do well and grow well in their primary school.

Are we able to know the applications breakdown of distance for phase 2c at end of each day?

You will have to call the school up for this as MOE doesn't give the breakdown.

Hi, I'm staying within 1-2km of Maha Bodhi. My girl is the eldest. Not sure can get in?

The TUR this year till 2B is lowest in 10 years. Traditionally a usual ballot for those within 1km, but for 2015, balloting only needed for more than 2km. If you already have an original school of choice, and you want to try MBS, you may want to monitor until 3rd day and assess the chances before you decide. Please note the number of the within 1km and 1-2km.

Kong Hwa P2C 1-2 km - zero chance.

Hence, possible to apply but not possible to get in.
