Maris Stella High School will become coeducational in 2027 and look to increase its intake. The school will then have Primary 1 and 2 students in the afternoon session, while other students are in the morning session.New: You can now listen to articles.SINGAPORE: When the primary section of Maris Stella High School moves to a partial single-session for a few years, Mr Jared Lim faces a potential logistical headache.

Mr Lim, an alumnus of the school, said he and his wife have taught their children how to get home from school by public transport. The silver lining is that with the school turning coed, it will solve"a lot of logistical issues" for the family since she can go to the same school as her brothers, he said.

For another alumnus Gavin Gan, hearing that the school was going to be rebuilt was not a surprise, but the decision to make the school coed was. "These different working hours may meet the needs of different groups of teachers, and the school will try to find a good fit for everyone."
