Which primary schools are actually within reach?

Buying near a school only helps if you can actually get in. Here's how every primary school in Singapore played out at Phase 2C in 2025 — vacancies, applicants, and who had to ballot.

Schools tracked 179
Balloted at least once 101
No balloting needed 78
Most competitive (2C) 5.66×
Note This tracks 2025 P1 registration demand, not distance from any one address. For the precise walking/road distance MOE uses for your postal code, check MOE SchoolFinder before you commit to a property.

Source & methodology.

Vacancy and applicant figures are from MOE's official 2025 Primary 1 Registration exercise (Phase 2C — the first phase open to all Singaporean and PR children not yet placed). Demand bands: Very High ≥2× applicants per vacancy, High ≥1.5×, Medium ≥1×, Low = no balloting required. "Chance of a place" is a simplified read of 2C vacancies ÷ applicants (100% where no ballot was needed) — a quick-glance estimate, not MOE's actual per-tier ballot odds; check a school's full profile page for the real distance-tier breakdown. A school's demand can shift year to year with intake changes and estate maturity — treat this as a read of last year's competition, not a guarantee for the next intake.
