Broadrick Secondary School

Broadrick Secondary School (BRD) is a co-educational government secondary school located along Old Airport Road, Singapore. The school is located beside Dakota MRT station.

History
Broadrick Secondary School was first established in 1968 at Dunman Road as an integrated school with both English and Chinese streams.

The school was officially opened by Mr Joseph Francis Conceicao, the then Member of Parliament for Katong, on 14 March 1969.

The school later moved to its current location at 61 Dakota Crescent in 2005 and was officially opened by Dr Yaacob Ibrahim on 20 July 2007.

Broadrick Secondary School celebrated her 45th Anniversary on 24 April 2015 which was graced by Minister for Communications and Information and Minister–in-charge of Muslim Affairs, Dr Yaacob Ibrahim, an alumnus.

Merger
In 1996, Broadrick Secondary School merged with Maju Secondary School to become a single session school.

Secondary Three and Secondary Four students from Broadrick Secondary School, used to attend technical classes at the Maju Secondary School when both school are situated side by side in the early days.

In 2011, Broadrick merged with Telok Kurau Secondary School.

In 2017, Broadrick merged with MacPherson Secondary School.

The Ministry of Education (MOE) release statement on 4 March 2016 that amid falling student cohort sizes, 22 secondary schools — including some household names — will be merged into 11 by 2018.

Shrinking birth rates in Singapore over the past two decades have led to a corresponding decline in overall demand for school places and a “significant excess” of secondary school places at the national level. Therefore Broadrick and MacPherson Secondary School merged.
