Get to know each school
Bukit View Secondary School
Bukit View Secondary began in 1986 with about 450 pupils and 15 teachers. MOE’s history records a 1999 Mandai Forest restoration project and later green learning spaces, including a solar-powered garden sprinkler. Clean Energy and Environmental Technology became its ALP focus, with the JOULES STEM emphasis sharpening from 2016. This helps explain why sustainability appears across the current programme, rather than only in one recycling event.
JOULES focuses on clean energy and environmental technology through design thinking and programming. The school lists Secondary 1 and 2 projects, a Secondary 2 Smart Cities showcase and a one-day Secondary 3 experience at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Examples include solar cars and assistive smart glasses. Further opportunities such as environmental leadership conferences and NXplorers are described for student leaders pursuing that interest. The scholarship table still uses older PSLE grades, so current eligibility needs direct confirmation before a family relies on it.
Chua Chu Kang Secondary School
The current school was formed by the 2023 merger of Chua Chu Kang Secondary and Teck Whye Secondary. It retains the English name Chua Chu Kang Secondary and the Chinese name 德惠中学. The former Chua Chu Kang school was established in 1992, with its pioneer intake in 1993; Teck Whye’s history dates to 1966. Older reviews of either predecessor describe a different school organisation. MOE’s earlier robotics history also needs to be read alongside the merged school’s current sustainability ALP.
Sustainable Living for a Resilient Future is the current ALP. Its published examples include farm-to-table work, Secondary 1 mushroom cultivation, recycling food waste, corridor farming and orchid pollination or hybridisation with visiting Japanese pupils. These examples show the kinds of applied work described, without establishing a place in every activity for every pupil. Community Youth Leadership connects this learning to residents: student leaders learned vegetable growing with NUS students and shared their work at the Chua Chu Kang Community Centre National Day carnival.
