Get to know each school
Bedok View Secondary School
Bedok View began in temporary premises in 1977 and moved to 6 Bedok South Avenue 3 in January 1978. Its official opening followed in September 1979, as the first government secondary school built in Bedok New Town. MOE’s history records the completion of PRIME upgrading in 2005, including an indoor sports hall and synthetic soccer field. The school’s global-awareness and values programmes were both accorded their ALP and LLP status in 2015.
BV Navigator gives different tasks to different year groups. Secondary 1 focuses on responsible consumption and production, with examples such as portable composting devices and cardboard chairs. Secondary 2 applies design thinking to a Singapore issue linked to one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. In Secondary 3, students choose one project area: STEM innovation, global leadership, or communication and digital skills. Secondary 4 and 5 move towards self-initiated external projects and mentoring younger students. Competitions and model-government events are examples within the programme, rather than activities every student necessarily attends.
St. Hilda's Secondary School
St Hilda’s traces its beginnings to Bethel English School, established on Ceylon Road in 1929. Archdeacon Graham White acquired it in 1934 and affiliated it to the Anglican Diocese. The school moved to Tampines and separated into primary and secondary schools in 1988; boys joined in 1989, and the two schools were officially opened in July 1990. In 2012, the secondary school’s Student Activity Centre opened with two indoor sports halls and a rooftop hockey pitch. Its 2024 ninetieth-anniversary programme included 90 Acts of Kindness. These milestones explain the school’s history without implying the primary and secondary curricula are interchangeable.
The iTHink Applied Learning Programme began with Secondary 1 in 2015. Its current description gives a progression: Secondary 1 has weekly Drama in Education lessons involving scripts, improvisation and speaking, plus an oracy project culminating in a podcast. Secondary 2 combines a local heritage learning journey with researched class debates. Secondary 3 brings together Social Studies issue investigation, CCE service and English advocacy in an integrated project. Pupils examine an issue, propose solutions and act on recommendations. These are specified learning activities; the stated aim of producing confident, caring and disciplined leaders is an aim rather than a measured result for every pupil.
