P1 Priority & Cedar Primary Ballot History
Children attending MK@Cedar are eligible to register for Primary 1 at Cedar Primary School during Phase 2A, subject to the prevailing MOE rules. Phase 2A is an earlier priority phase, but it does not guarantee admission. If applications exceed vacancies, citizenship and home-to-school distance priority may apply, and a ballot may be required.

On the interim counts, Cedar Primary's Phase 2A had 39 applicants for 120 places, which is within its Phase 2A capacity on the interim counts. MOE has not published a confirmed Phase 2A ballot outcome for this school, so the result here is shown as awaiting final confirmation rather than a settled ballot.
Where a phase is oversubscribed, MOE fills places by citizenship first (Singapore Citizens ahead of Permanent Residents) and then by home-to-school distance (within 1km, then 1km to 2km, then outside 2km), balloting only within the group where the places run out. Your family's registered address and citizenship group are what decide your standing, not last year's figures.
Previous-year results describe past demand only. They do not predict or guarantee a future outcome.
Recent Phase 2A history at Cedar Primary
MK@Cedar pupils first entered this Phase 2A pool in the 2022 exercise, which is when 2A demand here began to climb.

Before the 2022 exercise, Cedar Primary's Phase 2A drew fewer applicants, so a ballot was less likely in these years.

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.
Years tagged MK are the years MK@Cedar pupils were in the Phase 2A applicant pool (from the 2022 exercise, when the MK's first cohort registered for P1). An MK link gives Phase 2A eligibility, not a guaranteed place.

Common questions
Does MK@Cedar guarantee admission to Cedar Primary School?
No. It gives eligible children Phase 2A registration eligibility at Cedar Primary School, subject to the prevailing MOE rules, vacancies, citizenship, home-to-school distance and balloting where required. Phase 2A is an earlier priority phase, not a guaranteed place.
Does living near MK@Cedar guarantee a K1 place?
No. Where an MOE Kindergarten is oversubscribed, home-to-school distance can affect priority or balloting, so living nearby may help. It is not an unconditional guarantee of a K1 place.
Does the partner Early Years Centre guarantee a place at MK@Cedar?
Children who meet the official EYC partnership conditions and stay enrolled through the required period are offered a guaranteed K1 place at the partner MK. This EYC-to-MK guarantee is separate from P1 admission at the host primary school, which is never guaranteed.
Can my child attend MK@Cedar but apply to another primary school?
Yes. You are not required to register at the host primary school. Attending MK@Cedar earns Phase 2A eligibility at Cedar Primary, but you are free to choose the primary school that suits your child and family.
Why should I check old Phase 2A results?
Past results show how much demand there has been at Cedar Primary in Phase 2A, which helps you set expectations. They cannot predict or guarantee a future outcome, because demand, vacancies and the families who apply change every year.
