What Homes Cost Inside the 1km and 2km Rings at All 12 P1 Schools

When MOE announced the two-track Phase 2C scheme on 10 September 2026, the coverage explained what the rule is. It did not answer the question a family has to act on: what does a home in that ring cost, and what is even available there?

So we worked it out from our own book. Below is every development we are currently marketing within 2km of each of the twelve schools, with the straight-line distance, the asking price and the price per square foot. For the rule itself, read our summary of the 2027 changes.

The finding: the 1–2km ring roughly doubles the shortlist

Across all twelve schools we are marketing 11 developments inside the 1km ring. Widen to 2km and a further 14 developments come into view — homes that, for Phase 2C at these twelve schools, now sit in the same track as a house at the school gate.

That is the practical effect of the change. Homes near these schools did not get cheaper. The shortlist got longer.

It means something different in Bukit Timah than in Katong

Around Nanyang, Raffles Girls' Primary, Singapore Chinese Girls' and Anglo-Chinese School (Primary), everything we hold inside 2km is landed. Entry is $9,380,000, with land rates from $2,438 to $4,939 psf. Widening the radius there widens the choice of houses, not the choice of price bracket.

Around Tanjong Katong Primary, Tao Nan, CHIJ (Katong) and St. Margaret's, condominium stock sits alongside the landed and entry inside 2km is $1,291,000. For a family priced out of a house, those are the four schools where the 2km ring genuinely opens a door.

How we measured this

Each school is placed at its registered address through OneMap, the national mapping service; each home at its own postal code; the distance is a straight line between the two.

Treat these as indicative, not as a qualifying distance. MOE measures home-to-school distance its own way, and MOE's checker is the only answer that counts on registration day. Use ours to decide what to view. A few homes whose position we could not place precisely enough are left out.

Three things worth saying plainly

The two-track scheme covers Phase 2C at these twelve schools only. Every other school, and the earlier phases, keep the existing rules, where living within 1km still carries priority when a ballot is needed.

Being in the right track gets you into the ballot, not into the school. These are heavily subscribed schools and a ballot within the 2km track is likely.

Prices move and availability moves faster. Every figure here is the asking price on the day of writing. Ask us for the current position before planning around any of it.
