No transition period for P1 registration changes taking effect from 2027, Desmond Lee says

Education Minister Desmond Lee said there will be no transition period for changes to Primary 1 registration that take effect from 2027, CNA reported. The Straits Times reported that 15 per cent of Phase 2C pupils at 12 popular primary schools live in public housing.

P1 registration rules decide which children get places in the most sought-after schools.

Parents registering children for 2027 should read the new rules now.

Watch how the changes affect balloting at popular schools.
