Which Of These Primary School Is Better?

Recommended Posts

You can't register in more than 1 school, but you can volunteer in more than 1 school. I know a few mothers who did that and through their volunteer work, had greater insight into the workings of the schools, quality of teachers and chances of getting a place under Phase 2B. In some schools, Phase 2B requires balloting > 1km. They then register their child in the better of two school.

And it's not even guranteed my son will get a place :)

I think it all comes down to pure luck I guess.

Luck and a bit of knowledge of demographics. For popular zodiac years e.g. dragon, the number of eligible applicants tend to be a lot higher, so balloting is more likely.

Nowadays, with so many parents volunteering at schools, schools can be picky about which volunteer they want.

hahaha.. ya loh.. nowadays is the schools calling the shots... if i am not wrong, old gals and boys will get the first priority.. or those with siblings in first huh? then come the volunteers and staying within the 1km residents...
