Jurong West site slated for international school

A FORMER secondary school site in Jurong West is open for tender to be repurposed for foreign system school (FSS) use, the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) and Economic Development Board (EDB) announced on Tuesday.

The tender for the former Pioneer Secondary School site at 21 Jurong West Street 81 aims to draw proposals specifically from operators interested in providing more affordable foreign system education.

FSS are commonly known as international schools in Singapore, and offer primary or secondary education in accordance with a foreign curriculum such as the International Baccalaureate.
