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.

Sembawang Secondary School

MOE’s history records Sembawang Secondary’s establishment in 1999 and official opening in 2001. It describes a student-leadership structure introduced in 2006, a House system in 2008, and the PEARL one-to-one computing initiative in 2017. The narrative also contains older anniversary and “current year” wording, so those passages should not be treated as present-day statistics. What remains useful is the documented development of leadership and technology in the school’s educational approach, alongside its location at Sembawang Crescent.

The media-literacy ALP page remains under an “Outdated Pages” path, even though its update label says 2026. It describes analysing sources and creating media products, but it needs confirmation before being treated as current provision. Current ICT information instead names PDLP–PEARL, Code for Fun with IMDA, SLS digital-literacy modules and e-reflection. The science department distinguishes broad Science Fortnight exposure from deeper inquiry and competition opportunities for interested students. The English page includes public-speaking practice through “That’s My View”. These are published learning opportunities, not measured outcomes for all pupils.
