Results of the central allocation for entering Primary 1 in September will be released on June 7, the Education Bureau says.

A total of 20,794 children participated in the allocation of the Primary 1 admission. Of them, about 82% were allocated to schools of their first three choices.

Taking into account the discretionary places and the number of children allocated to schools of their first three choices, the overall satisfaction rate is 91.2%.

Registration formalities

Parents who completed a Choice of Schools Form in January should return to the Central Allocation Centre of their home school net on June 7 or 8 from 9.30am to 12.30pm or 1.30pm to 4.30pm to collect the Primary 1 Registration Form.

They should bring their copy of the Application Form for Admission to Primary 1 or the Choice of Schools Form for identification purposes.

Parents must complete registration formalities on June 10 or 11. Registration hours for AM schools are 9am to noon and those for PM schools are from 2pm to 5pm. For whole-day schools the registration hours are from 9am to noon and 2pm to 4pm.

Places allocated final

If parents cannot register their child with the allocated school on the specified dates they must contact the school beforehand to make alternative arrangements or they will forfeit the place allocated.

Upon registration the Primary 1 Registration Form should be surrendered to the school. Parents should note all places allocated are final. Requests for re-allocation without valid justification will not be entertained.
