Places, applicants and balloting by phase

Each cell shows the places available in that phase and the number of children who applied. "Balloted" means there were more applicants than places. Where MOE published which group had to ballot, it's shown.

2025: MOE's published vacancies and balloting data. 2026: MOE's final figures for the exercise (July–August 2026), from SGSchoolKaki's tracker; MOE adds 2026 to its own archive in January 2027. 2024: MOE's figures from SGSchoolKaki's ballot history; the group that balloted wasn't available for 2024. Phase 1 applicant numbers are shown where they were published.

What this means if you're moving for Angsana Primary. Phase 2C was balloted in 4 of the 8 years from 2019 to 2026. In 2025, 164 Singapore Citizen children living within 1 km balloted for 59 places, so about 36% got in. In 2026, 154 children applied for 60 places and the ballot was again among citizens within 1 km. Children living more than 1 km away did not get a Phase 2C place in either year.

Living within 1 km puts your child in the ballot, but a place isn't guaranteed.

From the 2027 exercise (for children starting P1 in 2028), MOE reserves 60 places for Phase 2C, up from 40, at schools with a P1 intake of 180 or more. Angsana Primary took 280 children in the 2026 exercise, so the change applies if its intake stays at 180 or more. Angsana Primary is not one of the 12 schools under MOE's new Two-Track Scheme, so living closer keeps its priority. More on the 2027 changes.

Phase 2C since 2019

The phase where living near the school counts, year by year. More than one applicant per place means a ballot.

Buying near the school

Registering from a home you've just bought

MOE uses the parents' NRIC address to place a child in a distance category. It also accepts the address of a home you've bought but haven't moved into yet, under these conditions.

A new launch (not yet completed)

  • The home's vacant possession date in your sale and purchase agreement must be within two years of your child starting P1. MOE doesn't accept the probable completion date.
  • You undertake to move in within two years of your child starting P1, and send the school a copy of the sale and purchase agreement during the phase.
  • If the address gets your child priority, you must live there for at least 30 months from the day you move in.

A completed home (resale)

  • You can register while the purchase is going through: for a private home, send the exercised option to purchase and the buyer's stamp duty certificate; for an HDB flat, the resale application status from HDB.
  • You undertake to live there from the start of your child's P1 school term.
  • You must then live there for at least 30 months from the start of P1.

If the 30-month stay isn't met, MOE transfers the child to another school of its choosing. MOE also checks for addresses used only for registration. Rules from MOE as at October 2026; always check moe.gov.sg in your registration year.

Which registration year can use a new launch address?

Worked out from MOE's own example (children registering in 2026 need a vacant possession date no later than 31 December 2028).

Also within 1 km of Parktown Residence: from 2029, the new campus of Damai Primary School. About 1 km away, close to the 1 km line: Poi Ching School and Elias Park Primary School. MOE's official distance category is measured from the school's boundary to the building's outline on OneMap, and can change from year to year. Check it with the unit's postal code on onemap.gov.sg/school in your registration year. The vacant possession date that counts is the one in your sale and purchase agreement.

Questions people ask me

How hard is it to get into Angsana Primary?

In 2025, 164 Singapore Citizen children living within 1 km balloted for 59 places, so about 36% got in. In 2026, 154 children applied for 60 places and the ballot was again among citizens within 1 km.

Does living within 1 km of Angsana Primary guarantee a place?

No. In 2026 even Singapore Citizens living within 1 km had to ballot for Phase 2C places, so a home within 1 km gets your child into the ballot but doesn't guarantee a place.

How many Primary 1 places does Angsana Primary have?

280 in the 2026 exercise. 60 of them were left for Phase 2C, the phase where living near the school counts.
