Phases
Distance groups (ballot priority order)
  • 1. SC<1: Singapore Citizen within 1km
  • 2. SC 1-2: within 1 to 2km
  • 3. SC>2: beyond 2km
  • 4. PR<1: Permanent Resident within 1km
  • 5. PR 1-2: within 1 to 2km
  • 6. PR>2: beyond 2km

MOE measures that distance from any point on the school's land boundary to your home's building outline, not between two single points, using the Singapore Land Authority's SLA's OneMap School Query service. Check your own address there in your registration year, per MOE's page on the address used for registration.

A grey note like all SC placed or all SC<1 placed means the phase was oversubscribed but no ballot was conducted: MOE offered the places by citizenship and distance priority, and everyone in the group shown was admitted (per MOE’s official balloting data). The % is not red in these cases because there was no ballot.

Each cell: the big number is places taken; below it, applicants / vacancies, then the demand % (applicants as a share of vacancies, so above 100% means more families wanted that phase than there were places). A red cell went to a ballot, with the group and its ratio, e.g. SC 1-2 (6/5). In the Total column, “of NNN” is that year’s total P1 places, the +/- below is the change from the year before, and the last line is places taken as a % of the total.

The 17 primary schools within 4km of Kong Hwa, nearest first, phase by phase. Use the year dropdown for earlier exercises.

School to school, measured land boundary to land boundary. Not your balloting distance: MOE measures a school's boundary to your home's building outline, so check your address at SLA's OneMap School Query.

Figures from MOE's official vacancies and balloting data. Because MOE reserves places for 2B and 2C and rounds when redistributing, the per-phase figures can add up to one or two more or less than the Total. The live picture for your year is always on the 2026 page.

Kong Hwa is consistently oversubscribed at the neighbourhood phases. In the 2025 Primary 1 exercise, Phase 2C drew 118 applicants for 49 places and went to a ballot, and Phase 2B was also balloted with 49 applicants for 24 places. If you are outside the priority categories, plan around these figures and read our registration guide for how the phases work.

Because balloting turns on where you live and your links to the school, it helps to weigh distance, citizenship priority and your realistic phase before committing. Our choosing a school guide walks through how to compare options sensibly.
