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

CULTURE OF EXCELLENCE
In Innova Primary School, we take pride in all that
we do. We recognize the integral role we play as
teachers in the lives of our pupils. The school in
general has embraced the Culture of Excellence
to shape, align and calibrate our understanding of
high quality actions and work. 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-

ethos for quality work. This holds the pupils in
good stead as they progress to the next stage of
their educational journey.

teachers who are committed to improving the
classroom practices and parents who augment and
support the schools existing structures in providing a
safe learning environment which is filled with joyful
learning experiences.

strategically and purposefully to level up teacher
competencies and capabilities to meet the rising and
complex demands of our learners. Teachers involved

programme for developing creative and critical
thinking in students to prepare them for the 21
st

Century. Through this programme, pupils will be able
