We have also provided information on 13 Primary Schools in Sembawang / Woodlands area for your consideration. We hope you will find this information useful. What is the purpose of the Primary One Registration Exercise? The Primary One Registration Exercise is an exercise for a child to register for a Primary One place in a mainstream school in the following year. Who can participate in the Primary One Registration Exercise? Children born between 2 January 2008 and 1 January 2009 (both dates inclusive) can participate in the 2014 Primary One Registration Exercise for admission to Primary One Classes in 2015. Please refer below for the different Phases of the Primary One Registration Exercise and the eligibility for each of the Phases. Where is the Primary One Registration Exercise conducted? Parents may proceed to the school of choice during their eligible phase to register their child for the Primary One Registration Exercise. How do I register my child for the Primary One Registration Exercise? Registration for each phase is conducted at the primary school. The hours of registration at schools are from 8.00 am to 11.00 am and from 2.30 pm to 4.30 pm on each scheduled registration day. Parents must produce the originals of each required document at the time of registration. Compulsory Education Under the Compulsory Education Act, Singapore Citizens born after 1 January 1996 and residing in Singapore are required to attend national primary schools regularly. Thus, a child who is at least 6 years old on 1 January of the year of admission to Primary One has to register at the Primary One Registration Exercise the preceding year.

What is new for the 2014 Primary One Registration Exercise? 40 Places Reserved to Ensure Continued Open Access to All Primary Schools 40 Places Reserved to Ensure Continued Open Access to All Primary Schools Starting from the 2014 Primary One (P1) Registration Exercise, the Ministry of Education (MOE) will reserve 40 places in every primary school for registrants in Phase 2B and 2C to ensure continued open access to all primary schools.
The 40 places will be reserved for Phase 2B and 2C (20 places for each phase) before the start of the P1 Registration Exercise. The number of vacancies remaining after Phase 2A(2) (this includes the 40 reserved places) will continue to be split equally between Phase 2B and 2C.
Primary One Internet System for Registration This year, MOE will introduce the Primary One Internet System (P1-‐IS) to all primary schools. The P1-‐IS serves as an alternate channel to facilitate the registration of children during Phase 2C and Phase 2C Supplementary. To register online via the P1-‐IS, both Parents’ SingPass are required. Parents who register online will have to produce the originals of each required document to the school the child is successfully registered when requested by the school or upon reporting to the school. Parents who do not wish to use the P1-‐IS to register their child can continue to do so by going to their school of choice for registration. Address Used for Registration The address to be used for the registration of children in the Primary One registration is the official residential address on the parents’ NRIC. This address will be used to determine the home-‐school distance category. Parents may obtain a list of schools within the 1km and 1-‐2km distance categories from the OneMap SchoolQuery Service managed by the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) in June.

Teachers are seen as positive role models who have the ability to formulate deep impressions in the hearts and
minds of pupils.
As such, embracing a ‘Culture of Excellence’ has enabled us to both consciously and sub-‐

good stead as they progress to the next stage of their educational journey.

thinking in students to prepare them for the 21st Century. Through this programme, pupils will be able
