Get to know each school

Bedok Green Secondary School

Bedok Green Secondary opened in 2001 in holding premises and moved into its new campus the following year, with an official opening in 2003. MOE’s history records that Ping Yi Secondary merged into Bedok Green in 2023. That recent change matters when weighing older comments about either school. The heritage page also retains older programme names, while the present school site describes Design and Aeronautical Engineering as its Applied Learning Programme; current programme detail should come from that newer description.

Design and Aeronautical Engineering connects classroom learning to aeronautical science through observation, experiments, learning journeys and making flying aircraft models. This is more specific than a general claim that the school teaches innovation. The programme page gives an outline of the approach, but not a level-by-level timetable or a list of compulsory assessments. A child interested in this area would benefit from seeing an actual project and understanding how much design, testing and revision it involves.

Geylang Methodist School (Secondary)

Geylang Methodist's origins lie in a class of 27 girls within Geylang Chinese Methodist Church in 1924. Secondary classes began in 1950. In 1984 the institution split into separate primary and secondary schools and became co-educational; the secondary school became single-session in 1999. The schools marked their centenary in 2024 with The Living Gallery heritage museum. The shared heritage should not blur their different programmes: the secondary school's sustainability ALP is distinct from the primary school's English communication programme.

The Tier 1 ALP is integrated into science for all lower-secondary pupils, with one hour a week over ten weeks. Secondary 1 investigates the urban heat-island effect, while Secondary 2 explores urban agriculture through experiments, fieldwork and a mini-project. Tier 2 is for interested Secondary 3 pupils seeking further STEM work. This is a useful distinction between scheduled general exposure and additional opportunities. Parents can ask what the project demands, how work is assessed and how pupils with different science subject levels are supported.
