Mrs Lai emphasised that parents should only submit one application form for each child.
"If parents are found to have applied for more than one places in government or aided schools, their applications will be rendered void and no discretionary place will be allocated," she said.
Parents of children who cannot use Chinese as learning medium are requested to seek advice from the department's POA Unit at second floor, 269 Queen's Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong, Tel 2832 7700, before submitting the application form.
"Schools receiving insufficient applications for discretionary places might not be allowed to operate primary one classes.
"In such cases, children already accepted by these schools for discretionary places will have to be subsequently reallocated to other schools which had vacancies," Mrs Lai said.
If parents wish to participate in central allocation only, they should send in the completed application form and relevant documents to one of the following collection centres from September 23 to 27 during office hours:
