Which HDB blocks are within 1km of each school in Central
Every block within 1km and between 1km and 2km, on the bands SLA's OneMap School Query gives for each address.
What registering in Central actually looks like
Central has 2 primary schools and 402 P1 places for 2026.
- 1 of them has an affiliated secondary school, which lets eligible children register in Phase 2A: St. Margaret's School (Primary). Places taken in Phase 2A are places that no longer reach Phase 2C.
On school buses, 1 of the 2 publishes a fare table on its own site, and across Central the monthly fares run $147 to $198. That table states a maximum rather than a set price. What a family actually pays depends on the distance band, the bus size and whether the trip is one way or two, so it varies by school. Confirm with that school's operator. Fares and operator per school
2026 figures: vacancies, applicants and places taken by phase come from MOE, vacancies and balloting. Each school's total P1 places for 2026 is MOE's own intake figure for that school. Last updated: 21 August 2026, 4:29pm SGT
2009 to 2025 figures: compiled from public records, not published by MOE in this form, and the same compilation is used for every school on this site. They are matched against MOE's past vacancies and balloting data for the years MOE still publishes. The years MOE no longer publishes are cross-checked public records, not official figures.
