Get to know each school

Broadrick Secondary School

Broadrick was founded in 1968 at Dunman Road with Chinese- and English-stream students, becoming English-medium in 1985. MOE’s Heritage Centre records mergers with Maju in 1996, Telok Kurau in 2011 and MacPherson in 2017. The current campus is at 61 Dakota Crescent. The school’s own heritage page places it within the wider Mountbatten neighbourhood, including Dakota’s former public housing and Kallang Airport. This history helps explain why more than one former school community is represented in today’s Broadrick.

The current ALP page describes foundational learning in Secondary 1 and 2 through Geography, Design and Technology, and Code for Fun. More advanced Secondary 3 opportunities are for pupils with strong interest and aptitude. The science page gives examples including designing sustainability prototypes, working with NIE researchers and a mentoring project for outdoor workers facing heat. These are useful descriptions of what students make and investigate. The selected programmes should not be presented as an automatic experience for every pupil.

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.
