Enquiries should be made direct to individual schools to see if there are vacancies at any level.

Mrs Fok advised parents to return the completed forms of the school of their choice on or before March 9.

Selection of applicants will be made on March 15.

Application forms are free and no entrance fee is charged for any admission to any Government school.

Mrs Fok said, "Children will normally be admitted to schools in the district in which they live. Care will be taken to ensure as far as possible that children from the same family will be studying at the same school."

"To facilitate the process of application, parents should provide all the particulars asked for in the application form," Mrs Fok said.

Meanwhile, parents are reminded that all children in the six to 12 age group who are not in school should apply for admission.
