Get to know each school
Chung Cheng High School (Main)
Chung Cheng began as a boys' school at Kim Yam Road on 24 January 1939. It closed during the Japanese Occupation and reopened in 1945, admitting girls. The Goodman Road campus became Chung Cheng High School (Main) in 1947; the original campus became the Branch school, which later moved to Yishun. The school joined the Special Assistance Plan in 1979 and became autonomous in 1996. Its Administration Building and Entrance Arch were gazetted together as a National Monument in 2014. The school records the reopening of the Grand Auditorium in July 2025.
Students mention the lake when describing their school days. A 2024 graduate described walking beside it when studies felt overwhelming, and staying in classrooms to study after lessons. In a separate account, a self-described Secondary 4 student wrote about spending time revising in the “fish tank” study space. The 2024 graduate also gave specific examples of teacher help: optional Additional Maths lessons during the June holidays, Chemistry revision sessions for a small group, and teachers willing to mark extra work. The Secondary 4 writer praised their upper-secondary teachers but said their lower-secondary experience had been disappointing. For an incoming Secondary 1 family, support in the first two years is worth asking about.

Fuhua Secondary School
MOE’s narrative dates Fuhua Secondary’s founding to 1999, with its first pupils in 2000 and official opening in 2002. It records robotics niche status in 2007, forensic-science ALP in 2015 and community-youth-leadership LLP in 2016. Later additions include the 2022 Living Lab for inquiry into plant growth and sustainability, and the 2024 i-GEN Studio for making and experimentation. Its chronology and programmes are separate from the much older Fuhua Primary; the similar names do not make their student experiences interchangeable.
All lower-secondary pupils undergo a one-year forensic-science programme. Lessons use hands-on investigation, moving through evidence, research, experiments, data interpretation and evaluation of findings. The page does not specify which lower-secondary year hosts that course. Specialist modules, such as digital forensics, are offered to selected pupils with a deeper interest. This gives a clear distinction between the common science experience and further study; a family should ask about the actual cohort schedule and how elective selection works.
