Key Points
- For SC and PR children: register your child for only one school in any phase. Multiple applications are not accepted. MOE will take your latest submission made during the phase.
- If your application in a phase is unsuccessful, you can register your child in the next phase they are eligible for. If unsuccessful in Phase 2C(S), your child will be posted to a school with available vacancy.
- Decide your preferred school before submitting. Withdrawals and amendments may lead to delays or missing a registration phase.
- 30-month stay requirement: children admitted under the active grassroots leader eligibility to a school within 2km of the registration address must reside at that address for at least 30 months from 30 June 2026.
