For priority admission to the affiliated secondary school, your child must indicate that school as their first choice. However, admission is not guaranteed as it is subject to vacancies.
Some schools may also have additional qualifying criteria for students from affiliated primary schools.
At least 20% of the vacancies in each Posting Group of each school is allocated to students who do not benefit from affiliation priority.
