Impact of Reduced Phase 2A Places on Alumni-linked Enrolment and Preserving Intergenerational School Culture, Heritage and Alumni Support

Assoc Prof Kenneth Goh asked the Minister for Education given successive increases in places reserved for Phase 2C and fewer places available under Phase 2A for the Primary 1 registration exercise (a) whether the Ministry has assessed the cumulative impact on alumni-linked enrolment and engagement; and (b) how it will preserve the intergenerational continuity, culture, heritage and alumni support that contribute to affected schools' communities.

Mr Desmond Lee: The Ministry of Education will provide an Oral answer to this Parliamentary Question (PQ), together with other PQs that have been filed on this topic, at the next available opportunity.
