Nothing is fair. If all kids are equal, all will be given an equal chance of sending their kids to which ever primary schools they want under ballot system and there will be no prestigious primary schools like Nanyang Primary, Raffles girls or
ACS where priorty admission are given to the rich who can afford houses within 1km from the school.
But the good thing is at least all the kids still sit for the same
PSLE and O level and the less well to do kids can still do well and study in a prestigious secondary school or college if he/she is smarter or luckier or more hardworking than the richer kids who already has an edge by given the opportunity to study in the top primary school.
