Get to know each school
Admiralty Secondary School
Admiralty Secondary started in 2002 using Evergreen Secondary’s premises, with the official opening at its current Woodlands Crescent site in 2004. Its history records recognition of Robotics Enterprise as a niche in 2006. The school later developed Design Thinking through Innovation and Technology as its Applied Learning Programme, alongside a community-outreach Learning for Life Programme. That history explains why technology and service recur in its present programme descriptions.
The school’s ALP page sets out a foundation for all students, with fortnightly Secondary 1 lessons using tools such as Qdee robots and Microsoft MakeCode. In Secondary 2, the published curriculum asks groups to develop solutions around inclusivity, extending earlier design thinking and coding through micro:bit and Huskylens. Separate enrichment opportunities include the Innovation Programme, maker workshops and competitions for interested and able students. The distinction is useful: timetabled lessons for everyone and deeper specialist participation involve different commitments.
Guangyang Secondary School
Guangyang traces its roots to Kong Yiong School, founded in 1918 to offer Chinese primary education. It became Kong Yiong High School in 1959, then split into primary and secondary schools in 1984. MOE records the secondary closure in 1986, a new Bishan school in 1987 and an official opening in 1990. Guangyang Secondary merged with Braddell-Westlake in 2006. The primary school’s separate relocation belongs to a different stage; its later programmes should not be attributed to the secondary school.
The STEM ALP runs during curriculum time for all lower-secondary pupils. Secondary 1 designs and tests solar-powered cars, applying energy, forces and motion through prototypes and a friendly race. Secondary 2 investigates a fictional case using fingerprints, simulated drug tests and an autopsy report, ending with a written report. Food security and hydroponics are other stated themes. These are classroom applications of science; the forensic exercise is not a real criminal investigation or professional qualification.
