Phase-by-Phase Strategy

Phase 1

Sibling Priority

Guaranteed

If your older child is currently enrolled at Rosyth, your younger child is guaranteed admission through Phase 1 sibling priority.

Phase 2A

Alumni Route

High

Rosyth has a dedicated and active alumni community. Former students who are members of the Rosyth Alumni Association can register under Phase 2A. Alumni children receive priority over the general Phase 2B/2C pool.

Phase 2B

PV + Grassroots

Medium

Rosyth is a non-affiliated school, so Phase 2B is via Parent Volunteer or Grassroots Leader. PV slots are limited and competitive — apply as early as possible. Grassroots leader (RC/CC/CDC) endorsement is the alternative path requiring 1+ year of active community service.

PV / Grassroots Info

Availability: Limited — competitive
When: Apply 2 years before registration
Hours: 40 hours minimum
Tip: Contact the school early. Grassroots path requires active community involvement (typically 1+ year).
Phase 2C

Open Balloting

Low

Rosyth regularly ballots in Phase 2C for <1km. 1-2km and >2km applicants have very low chance. The school's GEP centre status adds to its popularity. Living within 1km is strongly recommended.

Phase 2B — Step-by-Step Guide

Phase 2B at Rosyth School is via Parent Volunteer (PV) or Grassroots Leader. As a non-affiliated school, these are the only two Phase 2B paths. Competition is high as PV slots are limited.

Parent Volunteer (PV)High competition

  1. Contact Rosyth School parent support group 2 years before P1 registration
  2. Submit PV application in January. Slots fill within days
  3. Complete minimum 40 volunteer hours over 2 years
  4. Receive Phase 2B eligibility letter from school in June of registration year

Timeline: Start: K1 year (Jan). PV application: Jan-Feb. Complete 40hrs by: Apr of P1 registration year

Grassroots LeaderMedium competition

  1. Join your local Residents' Committee (RC) or Neighbourhood Committee (NC) 2+ years before P1 year
  2. Serve actively as an executive member. Attend monthly meetings
  3. Obtain endorsement letter from People's Association (PA) for Phase 2B

Timeline: Start: By K1 year. Endorsement cutoff: ~Jun of year before registration

Key Dates

  • PV applications open: January (2 years before P1 year)
  • PV hours deadline: April of P1 registration year
  • Grassroots endorsement cutoff: June of preceding year
