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.
Meridian Secondary School
Meridian Secondary came into being in April 2016 through the union of Siglap Secondary and Coral Secondary. Coral itself had started on Siglap’s premises in 1999, so the merger reunited communities with an earlier connection. The school history describes inherited strengths in art, music, football and floorball. Those origins explain parts of its programme mix; older enrolment figures and sporting descriptions do not establish current cohort size, team ranking or an individual pupil’s prospects.
The current ALP is titled Aesthetics, broader than the Visual Communication description in the school history. Its common tier introduces Sec 1 pupils to digital photography, Southeast Asian music and Western classical music. Sec 2 pupils choose media, visual art, music or dance for deeper exploration. Extended opportunities include MAEP, EAP, Media Club and performing-arts CCAs for pupils with strong interest. Partnerships and public showcases are described as opportunities; they should not be assumed to be identical for every pupil or intake.
