golden_eagle 2nd Gear April 7, 2018 Share April 7, 2018 I am wonder whether the CHIJ primary schools allows children of different religion? I remember the Maha allows non Buddhist children. Are there selection criteria differ from other primary schools? I don't intend to talk too much about religion, just some research for buying a house for overseas friends. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chongster 6th Gear April 7, 2018 Share April 7, 2018 Not sure what kind of response you been getting. Singapore moe primary schools are all national schools so purely based on moe enrollment rules, no discrimination allowed. However Christian school will have prayers, pastoral care, chapel time etc. some people eyes wide open enrol Christian school, but then want to write in to opt out of these. School will allow, but I think it’s not good, and not good for the kid too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

golden_eagle 2nd Gear April 8, 2018 Author Share April 8, 2018 You must be coming from a country where multi-religion and multiracialism is not tolerated or has been forgotten. Singapore is not one such country. I am not drawn into such revelation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merc280v6 6th Gear April 8, 2018 Share April 8, 2018 Must be a dumb or really bad question, judging from the response it gets.All schools in Singapore take in students of all races, language and religion. There are the phased entries based on parental affiliation, proximity of residence etc. ... but that cuts across all. HOWEVER, if you are talking about foreigners trying their luck to get into our more-prestigious schools, the new rules have changed ... and will continue to be “enhanced” to favor citizens only! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priority given to Singaporeans within 1km for Primary school. Secondary and JCs depend on results. My Malay neighbours 2 kids are in CHIJ Primary and my girl (buddhist) is in CHIJ sec.

I know many parents whose kids ended up in “phase 3” schools end up liking it. The prestigious popular schools will end up very cloistered. I see it in my son’s school, much as the national policy for preferring Singaporeans is needed. Edited April 9, 2018 by Chongster Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
