Where can we find the info, eg at what distance Catholic High conducted balloting in 2A in 2022? I’ve lost track of where KSP posts the info.[/quote]

Does SD come into play in Phase 2A? For e.g. I saw that in 2022, Catholic High Phase 2A has 110 vacancies with 149 applicants. Would SD help in getting priority during a ballot?

My child is going P1 in 2 years time. We have bought a new unit that will only be ready by end of 2025 - within 1km of the school we have in mind. For Phase 2C, is it okay to put the new unit address application address (even though IC is of current different address)? if anyone has any experience to share, TIA.

Hi,

If I am using caregiver’s address to apply for P1, does that mean that I won’t be able to enrol in student care? As we are currently living with in-laws on weekdays, thus this arrangement. However, my in-law will not be able to fully take care of my child.

Also, it was mentioned that we need to use “this” childcare arrangement for at least 30months - does this mean that I will have to treat this address like our own address for any future forms that’s required by the school? Not sure how it works.

It only means caregivers has to stay at their address for 30 months. You will continue at your own address. You can enrol in student care.

Hi.

Can we use 1 address (mine) for School A under Phase 2A and if we fail to get in, make a SD (grandparents) and register for School B under a different address under Phase 2C? Does the SD have to be done before the P1 registration commences?

<1km always gets best priority to ballot. MT has no impact on balloting. But please make sure the school has your MT in the first place.

Perhaps if you just tell us the school, us KSP veterans can tell you immediately whether 1-2km would be safe or not. We have the balloting history of the various schools.

Woah! That is scary. Esp for popular schools. And all this happens at phase 2c. So you go in hoping that 1km, there are not many kids, and then you somewhat stand a chance at the 1km- 2km range? The ballot is only with distance? Would the MT language come into consideration?

Im under 2B but >2km from IJ TP....They have ballots but would like to know if it is for >2km or lesser. Cant seem to find much info. Won't mind taking the risk balloting if >2km qualifies.

Would like to check if there is any other criteria should I use sibling’s address as a caregiver address?
Understand from the website that SD has to be made and both parents must be working .

I am guessing your lease is for <1km of SJIJ, ACSJ and ACSP. While your mum’s address is <1km of Rosyth.

Caregiver will be considered 1-2km of Rosyth, no chance to join the ballot.

The other 3, SJIJ will be straight in without balloting. ACSJ and ASCP, u can join the balloting if you wish.

Omg. Yes u are right. I just have to find out more about the other schools then. So out of curiosity, those who don't get balloted at 1-2km, what happens? They get pushed to phase 2cs?[/quote]

Yes. Those who get balloted out at ACSP and ACSJ <1km will have to apply to another school in Phase 2CS. The usual choices for 2CS in that catchment area are either Bukit Timah Primary or Farrer Park Primary.

Feel free to PM me if u wish. I went thru similar choices but 4 years ago.

I have a few choices. SJI, ACS Jr, ACS Pri and Rosyth.

None is safe for < 1km. Most likely ballot.
1-2km very likely no chance - at best, you will get to ballot for SJI. That’s about the only one with some hope.
