Calculating home-school distance

Those who live within 1 km from a school will be given priority during the primary school registration exercise in Singapore. Singapore citizens enjoy greater priority than Singapore PR.

The order of priority is: home-school distance within 1 km > between 1 km and 2 km > outside 2 km. 

Parents who want their children to gain priority admission to schools based on distance while planning for primary school should have stayed in their address for 30 months by the start of the registration exercise.

To calculate the home-school distance, you can use the OneMap SchoolQuery Service :

  • Go to the OneMap website.
  • Select the “SchoolQuery service”.
  • Click on the “Find Schools near a building” option button.
  • Enter the residential address in the “Find Location” box and click “Go”.
  • Click on the desired building on the map. OneMap will generate a report with a list of schools which are within 1 km and between 1 km and 2 km from the selected building.
  • Click on the printer icon in the SchoolQuery dialog box, the report will be displayed.
