When To Expect The Balloting Results For Primary School

While Phase 2C of the Primary 1 Registration process closed on 5 August, the results of the balloting for each primary school will be out on 17 August. 

Do take note that there is a cap on the number of Permanent Residents that can enter the school during Phase 2C and 2C Supplementary. This cap was introduced by MOE last year and is between 25 per cent as well as 30 per cent of a school’s planned Primary 1 intake. 

The ministry previously stated that this measure is to “prevent any concentration of PR children in our primary schools, provide a more conducive environment to encourage interaction between Singapore citizen and PR children, and facilitate the integration of PR children into Singapore.”

Those who have yet to register in a primary school can register in the next phase, Phase 2C Supplementary which will be on 19 August at 9am through the Primary 1 Internet System.
