Hwa Chong Institution, a premier independent school in Singapore, is the culmination of the watershed merger between the former Chinese High School (founded 1919) and Hwa Chong Junior College (founded 1974) in 2005. Today, Hwa Chong is one of the finest educational institutions for high-achievers and the gifted in the region. Its reputation as a premier school is based not only on the academic excellence of the students but also their determination to excel in all other areas like leadership, sports and games, co-curricular activities, science research, and service to the community.
With a rich history and a distinguished heritage, the school is constantly venturing into new frontiers. In 2007, we set up the Hwa Chong-Beijing satellite campus in China. In 2008, Hwa Chong became the first independent school to pioneer the Future Schools @ Singapore initiative. In 2009, we will be implementing the Integrated Boarding Programme to develop our students' intellectual, leadership, and personal potential.
To allow our students to explore and further develop their interests in various fields, Hwa Chong offers a wide array of programmes. At the high school section, the Centre for Scholastic Excellence (CSE) was set up in 2008 for high achievers to attempt an expanded upper secondary curriculum with a more independent and student-centred approach. The Science and Math Talent Programme (SMTP), under the umbrella of CSE, provides opportunities for students to undertake research projects under the professional guidance of our teachers. Students also take part in science fairs and conferences in Singapore and internationally, and often do Hwa Chong proud by clinching the top prizes.
