EVERY SCHOOL AN ACCESSIBLE SCHOOL?
PROPERTY PRICES AND PRIORITY ADMISSION TO SINGAPORE’S
PRIMARY SCHOOLS

Abstract
This paper investigates the extent to which the use of home-school distance as a criteria for primary
school admission allows inequalities of wealth and income to be transmitted across generations in
Singapore. It applies cluster analysis to a dataset that maps the relative ranking of each school to the prices of property in a one-kilometer radius around it. It then finds that the best-ranked and most popular schools are concentrated in the most expensive neighborhoods. At these schools, a
significant number of places are already taken up by applicants with connections to the school;
competition for the remaining places is intense and home-school distance is critical to stand good
chances of admission. Thus, the location of elite schools in expensive neighborhoods tends to favor
applicants with wealthy or well-connected parents. It then considers the implications of these
findings for meritocracy in Singapore, and discusses policy options to mitigate the transmission of
inequalities across generations in this manner

新加坡名校有那么重要么
很多排名也最高分算，显然不靠谱。
以考分250+的高分人数算。
那些TOP名校每年有100+，去掉gep考进的，本校培养的50+
好的邻里学校，每年也有20+，加上gep考出的，本校培养的有30+，区别有那么大么
能折腾名校的在小孩教育投入更大，这个可能是50-30的最大因素
有人能解释下是不是可以这么算，还是名校除了考分还有其他追求

4.3 Conclusion
The simple correlation of two aggregated variables produced results consistent with the hypothesis that the best schools are concentrated in expensive neighborhoods. Nevertheless, the relatively low value of the correlation coefficient, the large number of outliers in the top-left quadrant of the scatter plot, and the concentration of data points in the bottom-right quadrant suggested that a simple linear-fit model was insufficient to analyze the correlation.
