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.
Yio Chu Kang Secondary School
MOE records the school’s establishment in 1965, its move to Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5 in 1982, and the merger with Chong Boon Secondary in 2018. The merged school retained Yio Chu Kang’s English name and adopted Chong Boon’s Chinese name, 崇文中学. It introduced a new school song in 2019. The heritage record also dates its performing-arts niche status to 2007 and Pathlight satellite partnership to 2014. Older alumni accounts may therefore concern a different period of school organisation; the merger is an important boundary when reading them.
The ALP centres on technological sustainability and connects STEM knowledge to community problems. Its structured curriculum develops coding and computational thinking through inquiry, with a Secondary 1–2 curriculum overview. Further options include the Mechatronics, Aeronautical and Robotics club, competitions, Secondary 3 polytechnic elective modules, mentorship and a maker programme. These are additional opportunities for interested pupils, not a guarantee that every child receives every placement. STEM DSA entrants are expected to join the relevant club. A family should compare ordinary curriculum exposure with the time, selection and commitments attached to deeper participation.
