History

edit

Bukit Batok Secondary School was first opened in 1986,[1] housed in a S$8.2 million campus at the junction of Bukit Batok West Avenues 3 and 8.[2] In 1988, air-conditioners were installed in the school's library, language lab and computer room. On 9 April that year, the school was officially opened by Chai Chong Yii, Member of Parliament for Bukit Batok SMC.[3]

From 2006 to 2008, the school was rebuilt for S$25.48 million under the PRIME scheme. School Advisory Committee members and parents raised another S$661,220 in two years for non-standard items such as an air-conditioned multi-purpose hall and a viewing gallery for the Indoor Sports Hall.[4]
