SINGAPORE: An infrastructure rejuvenation programme will be carried out for junior colleges in phases from 2022, Education Minister Ong Ye Kung said on Tuesday .are among the oldest Government JCs, with campuses that have become “somewhat dated”.“We have been progressively improving the building infrastructure of our ITE and polytechnics,” he said. “I think our JCs deserve new campuses too.”
In the first phase, three JCs – Anderson Serangoon JC, Jurong Pioneer JC and Temasek JC – will be rebuilt. Another JC, Yishun Innova JC, will be upgraded. This is expected to be completed by around 2025. Temasek JC, which has the oldest campus among the government JCs at 43 years old, will move to the former Tampines JC site, while its current campus in Bedok is being rebuilt.
Meanwhile, Yishun Innova JC, which is currently located at the former Yishun JC site, will move to upgraded premises at the former Innova JC site. Mr Ong said the permanent site was chosen because it will be served by the new Thomson-East Coast MRT Line.
