Get to know each school
Geylang Methodist School (Secondary)
Geylang Methodist's origins lie in a class of 27 girls within Geylang Chinese Methodist Church in 1924. Secondary classes began in 1950. In 1984 the institution split into separate primary and secondary schools and became co-educational; the secondary school became single-session in 1999. The schools marked their centenary in 2024 with The Living Gallery heritage museum. The shared heritage should not blur their different programmes: the secondary school's sustainability ALP is distinct from the primary school's English communication programme.
The Tier 1 ALP is integrated into science for all lower-secondary pupils, with one hour a week over ten weeks. Secondary 1 investigates the urban heat-island effect, while Secondary 2 explores urban agriculture through experiments, fieldwork and a mini-project. Tier 2 is for interested Secondary 3 pupils seeking further STEM work. This is a useful distinction between scheduled general exposure and additional opportunities. Parents can ask what the project demands, how work is assessed and how pupils with different science subject levels are supported.
Junyuan Secondary School
Junyuan Secondary began in January 1999 with 280 pupils and 17 staff, according to its school history. The account describes successive phases of development, from school values to the Champion Mindset and innovation. These are historical descriptions of the school’s direction, rather than current enrolment figures. Junyuan Secondary and Junyuan Primary are separate schools, so primary-school programmes and parent experiences should not be used to describe this secondary campus. The present programme pages provide the stronger basis for understanding what a prospective Secondary 1 pupil would encounter.
The FISH ALP stands for Food, Innovation, Science and Health. Secondary 1 Food and Consumer Education culminates in a mini-MasterChef, while Geography considers rice cultivation and sustainability and Malay explores grains in different cultures. Secondary 2 uses nutritional choices in camp orienteering and a MasterChef cook-off. Upper-secondary examples include coffee making, tea appreciation, mushrooms and alternative proteins. The concrete theme connects subject knowledge with preparing food and evaluating choices. Competitions and learning journeys extend that work, with participation details to be checked for the particular cohort.
