Other schools in the wider area
Families also look at schools in the wider Serangoon and Bishan area, such as Yangzheng Primary, Zhonghua Primary, Rosyth School, St. Gabriel’s Secondary and Serangoon Garden Secondary. Whether each one falls within 1 km or 2 km of One Chuan Grove must be confirmed on OneMap.
How P1 distance priority works
Under MOE’s Primary 1 registration, when a phase is oversubscribed, places go first to Singapore Citizen children living within 1 km, then 1 – 2 km, then beyond 2 km. Many families time a move so they are living at the new address when their child registers.
Timing tip: With TOP expected around 2030, a child born in 2024 would register for P1 in mid-2030. For some families the completion date could line up with that registration.
Tutoring, enrichment and childcare
The Serangoon and Bishan area has a dense cluster of enrichment centres, especially around NEX and Junction 8, both one MRT stop away. Childcare centres are also common in nearby HDB estates and along Upper Serangoon Road.
