SINGAPORE - When I was registering my elder daughter for Primary 1 seven years ago, I had the choice of putting her in my alma mater, a popular girl's school, or her brother's school, a neighbourhood school nearby.
Based on the rules then, there was a high chance she would qualify for my primary school.
