Hihi,


Any parents here registering your kid under phrase 2A2?

And does anyone knows the take up rate for last year under 2A2?

I can see that under 2A1 this year there were 98 children registered. Left with 34 seats for 2A2.

I am afraid there might be balloting.

Last year 49 registered under 2A2.

Will be under 2A2 & staying outside 2km. Hope can get in Ai Tong.

Hi Keming parents!


Any one get the sensing the school is less well managed since the former principal from HPPS left?

My DS's class kena 2 FT going for maternity in a row, during his P1 & now again in P2! . His new FT was a music teacher. If not for the excellent work of his pro teach after sch care teachers + our nagging, he would have fallen behind.

If this continues, you may have to bring up your concern to the Principal even though she may knows what happened.

If parents don't make noise they may just let it be.

parents whose kids in Keming, may I know which after sch student care u all opting??? im looking for one. my gal going P1 next year but the student care in Keming fully booked. any suggestion?

Can try Bukit Batok Community Club which is next to West Mall.

Try the student care ctr @ the CC near keming. There is mcdonalds. Can't recalled the name of the student care but I have friends de kids there they said good leh.

Pro teach is better. My girl is with QSF. I find it so so only. Knew a handful of mummies putting their kids in pro teach.

please advice.


i called up PEPS.

i am a SC staying within 1km of this school. belongs to the 2C pharse. the school told me tat based on their pass record 2C they have abt 50-60 vacancies & ard 120-130 registered for this pharse.

i fall under 2C. do you think is a risk to take and try out their 2C balloting?

Take a risk at peps only if u are willing to accept yourbackup sch in the event u failed balloting. Due to changes in registration ruling, past year data on p2c supp may not serve as a useful guide eg if PR knows their chances at peps or saps r low, they may not want to risk again in phase 2csupple n will go straight for bukit view - I think have balloting with 1km in p2cs - or lianhua - which in 1 yr had balloting with 1 km - or others in phase 2c hence these schs will have few vacancies left in phase2csupp.
Have backup sch preferably within 1 km. Then monitor this yr registration stats closely.
Good luck.

Hi jedamum,

i do not like the backup school which is opp my hse.

i m willingly to take the risk to try but once i think of the backup school i starts to half hearted.

Yes, this is good news for SC but very bad news for PR.


We are PR since 2008 and my wife was doing voluntary service for last 2 years to get admission (for our only daughter), in one of popular school.

Now, this new rule is so bad for us, that even we have no chance of getting admission in any phase. My wife is feeling that all of her efforts has gone in drain. :imconstipated:

What we have analyzed with this rule, there will be no PR student in all popular schools, except phase 1 and 2A, which would also see no PR student after 5-6 years as mostly siblings will get admission, what after that? when no more siblings left to get admission?

Please think these points
1. If all SC students are in one school and PR in other schools, do SC will send there kids in PR \"dubbed \" schools? :shock:
2. If PR students can not study with SC students how will they know Singapore culture better? :scared:

If we think of getting citizenship, it is very late now and also it is very hard to get citizenship. We can not pay $800+ every month to send our daughter to international school. :frustrated:

Hi I tot as PV you should be under 2B pharse?
