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.
St. Anthony's Canossian Secondary School
St Anthony’s Canossian Secondary traces its roots to St Anna’s School, founded on Middle Road in 1879 for six children of poor parishioners. The Canossian sisters took over the girls’ school in 1894. The primary and secondary schools moved to adjoining Bedok North Avenue 4 premises in 1995; the secondary school gained autonomous status in 2002. These are shared historical roots, rather than evidence that the two schools offer the same programmes. The performing arts became part of the formal curriculum in 1998, and the school launched its arts niche and biennial Arts Alive! festival in 2004.
The current arts page says all lower-secondary students study Music and Drama, with eight performing arts CCAs providing further opportunities. Project work includes reflection on the creative process, while service learning connects performance with community activities. The school reports a LASALLE College of the Arts partnership since 2025, including contact with industry professionals and exposure to higher arts education. It also describes visits and workshops involving arts institutions. These are learning opportunities; the page does not establish guaranteed arts-school admission or the same external programme for every pupil.
