What buyers considering the Ministry of Education's Home-School Distance priority should know.
Under MOE's Primary 1 registration framework, applicants living within 1km of their preferred primary school receive priority in earlier registration phases (typically Phase 2B/2C) ahead of those living beyond that radius, with a further priority band for those within 2km. Because balloting for popular schools can be competitive, many Singapore families weight this distance heavily when choosing a home.
Bedok Green Primary School sits on Bedok South Avenue 2, in the same broader Bedok South precinct as the Bedok Rise Residences site on New Upper Changi Road. Whether a specific unit at Bedok Rise Residences falls within the 1km or 2km band depends on the exact measured straight-line distance once the development's precise address and unit locations are finalised — this is not yet confirmed and should not be assumed.
Bedok Green Primary School is a government primary school located within the Bedok planning area. As with any school-proximity consideration, prospective buyers should look beyond distance alone — school culture, programmes and vacancy rates in a given year all affect actual admission chances, and school catchment status can be reassigned by MOE over time.
