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.
Serangoon Secondary School
Serangoon Secondary traces its origins to Serangoon English School on Simon Road in 1928. It stopped primary classes in 1957, moved to Lowland Road and adopted its current name in 1967, then relocated to 11 Upper Serangoon View in 2001. Earlier periods included feeding pupils to Raffles schools and offering pre-university classes, which ended in 1976. These are historical roles rather than present affiliations or courses. The school’s long history should be read separately from the programmes and subject options available to a new cohort.
The Future of Transportation ALP gives all Sec 1 pupils 3D modelling and printing in Semester 2, using Tinkercad to design prototypes. All Sec 2 pupils move to drone programming in Semester 1, using Tynker and applying ideas about flight through simulation, testing and debugging. Selected Sec 2–3 pupils extend their learning through Infocomm Club programmes. Upper-secondary Computing is an elective subject offered at G1, G2 and G3 levels to interested pupils who meet academic requirements. Introductory ALP participation therefore does not automatically secure a later Computing place.
