Who is eligible for the 2026 P1 Registration Exercise?

Children born from 2 January 2020 through 1 January 2021, both dates inclusive, are in the age group for the 2026 exercise and admission to Primary 1 in 2027. Singapore Citizen and Permanent Resident children use Phases 1 to 2C Supplementary; international students follow the separate Phase 3 process.

How do parents register for P1 in Singapore?

One parent logs in to the official P1 Registration Portal with Singpass and 2-Factor Authentication during the child's eligible phase. The portal shows the phases and schools the child is eligible for. MOE treats the latest submission made before that phase closes as the application.

How does P1 balloting priority work?

When applications exceed available places, MOE conducts computerised balloting centrally. Priority is considered first by citizenship and then home-school distance: Singapore Citizens within 1km, 1km–2km, and outside 2km, followed by Permanent Residents in the same three distance bands.

Does living within 1km guarantee a P1 place?

No. Living within 1km gives a child higher priority within the relevant citizenship group, but it does not guarantee admission. If that priority group has more applicants than places, applicants within the group must ballot.

Where can I check 2026 P1 vacancies and balloting updates?

MOE is the official source for 2026 vacancies, applicant numbers, and confirmed balloting status. EduGuru republishes a dated comparison snapshot and demand ratios for easier school-to-school analysis; figures shown before MOE finalises a phase are labelled preliminary.

Is the EduGuru popularity ranking an academic school ranking?

No. It is a demand indicator based only on P1 applicant-to-vacancy ratios. The score weights Phase 2A at 1.0, Phase 2B at 1.5, and Phase 2C at 1.3. It does not measure academic results, teaching quality, facilities, or whether a school is suitable for a particular child.
