Get to know each school

Jurongville Secondary School

Jurongville and Hong Kah Secondary both received their first Secondary 1 pupils in 1994. They merged in January 2019 after the decision was announced in April 2017. The merged school retained Jurongville in English and 丰嘉中学 in Chinese, with a refreshed uniform and crest drawing on both communities. This matters when reading older accounts: a pre-2019 experience of either constituent school is not automatically a description of the present merged school.

The ALP, Real-World Learning Through Electronics, introduces Secondary 1 and 2 pupils to electronics and coding through drone activities, block-programmed robots and creating online games. Upper-secondary options described on the page include Electronics, Smart Electrical Technology and short polytechnic learning modules, matched to strengths and interests. Pupils with a stronger interest may represent the school in STEM competitions. The distinction is useful: the lower-secondary exposure is broad, while specialised subjects, external modules and competition places require separate consideration.

Pasir Ris Crest Secondary School

Pasir Ris Crest Secondary opened in 2000 with 320 pupils and 16 staff, and its official opening followed in 2002. MOE records its music centre-of-excellence status from 2000 and fencing CCA from 2001. Its 2014 LLP focused on music and performing arts, but in 2025 the school reoriented LLP to CRESTIAN LEADERS. Families reading older reviews should distinguish that historical music emphasis from the current leadership programme. The school still offers arts DSA, but the revised LLP is not simply a music course for every pupil.

The current ALP microsite describes performance tasks woven through English at all levels for the whole pupil population. A second tier includes a special-interest group for selected lower-secondary pupils and a CCA developing content creation and public speaking. Its twenty-fifth-anniversary digital anthology gathers selected writing from students, staff and alumni around the theme of Home. This distinguishes regular classroom communication work from additional talent development. Published ambitions to influence audiences do not by themselves show improvement in every pupil’s language results.
