Get to know each school
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.

Guangyang Secondary School
Guangyang traces its roots to Kong Yiong School, founded in 1918 to offer Chinese primary education. It became Kong Yiong High School in 1959, then split into primary and secondary schools in 1984. MOE records the secondary closure in 1986, a new Bishan school in 1987 and an official opening in 1990. Guangyang Secondary merged with Braddell-Westlake in 2006. The primary school’s separate relocation belongs to a different stage; its later programmes should not be attributed to the secondary school.
The STEM ALP runs during curriculum time for all lower-secondary pupils. Secondary 1 designs and tests solar-powered cars, applying energy, forces and motion through prototypes and a friendly race. Secondary 2 investigates a fictional case using fingerprints, simulated drug tests and an autopsy report, ending with a written report. Food security and hydroponics are other stated themes. These are classroom applications of science; the forensic exercise is not a real criminal investigation or professional qualification.
