Singapore Primary 1 Registration School Balloting History

(Charts Updated 25 Mar 2013) Here is the consolidated Primary One Registration balloting history of Singapore's Primary Schools, since 2006. In this latest edition, we have included the 2012 data as part of the Historical Average. This data is useful to parents as an indicator of the difficulty of getting their children into their preferred schools.

You MUST be registered and logged into your KiasuParents.com account before you can access the individual statistics pages for each region. Click here to sign up for a free KiasuParents.com account.

The table below describes the various possible scenarios:

Scenario	Interpretation
No balloting necessary	The number of applicants (APP) was at most equal to the number of vacancies available for that Phase. All registrants were successful.
No balloting even though APP exceeded vacancies for a Phase	The only time this happens is if twins, triplets, etc were successfully registered within the Phase. Multiple births are treated only as 1 registrant during registration.
Cut off at 1-2km	The number of applicants (APP) exceeded the number of available vacancies. All those staying under 1km were successful without balloting. As there was an EXACT number of applicants staying in the 1-2km range for the remaining vacancies, those staying 1-2km were also successful without balloting. All those staying outside of 1-2km were unsuccessful. There was no ballot.
Cut off at <1km	The number of applicants (APP) exceeded the number of available vacancies. As there was an EXACT number of applicants staying under 1km for the available vacancies, those staying under 1km were successful without balloting. All those staying outside of 1km were unsuccessful. There was no ballot.
Balloting required at >2km	The number of applicants (APP) exceeded the number of available vacancies. All those staying under 2km were successful without balloting. All those staying beyond 2km have to ballot for the remaining vacancies. If X% of APP were staying under 2km, then the probability of winning the ballot is (100-X)/(APP-X). To determine X, it is necessary to check with the school sometime before the end of the days of registration for that Phase.

It should be under Toa Payoh -> http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/toa-payoh.

You might want to check with existing parents whether this school is good under their parent network group-> http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=4513&start=...

Hi,

May I check with you which area this school is considered to be? Judging from the maps, I thought it would be something like in Serangoon but I don't find its balloting info here:

Appreciate your help. Sorry I'm new to the Primary School searching scene... still a bit clueless.

And is the school any good? Any thing bad about it?

My child is a dragon baby boy.

Thanks.

Nanhua Pri Sch

Wondering how are my son's chances for Nanhua Primary School under Phrase 2B, within 1km? Is it true they have their own student services centre? Any good student services centres nearby? My son is enrolling this year. Any mummies out there enrolling in Nanhua as well?
