Yishun Town Secondary School

My son also attends YTSS. I am all thumps up for this school. The teachers are dedicated. If the child slackens in a particular subject, the teacher ensures that the child is taught during the subject days which are days the child stays back after school. My son is going to sit for O levels this year. The teachers are very hardworking and i am of the view that i could not have sent him to a school better than YTSS.

It is not just academic result that would reflect how well the school. YTSS was not my child or our list of school four years back. But after hearing from some other parents about the school’s strict discipline and academic results, it was first how the students conducted themselves when we first visited their open house. I also took time to observe how the students behave outside the school at near by blocks which saw that they were all well groomed on physical appearance, no funny fashions or bad behaviours. From that it also reflect on the schools and teachers how well they conducted and that students took pride wearing their uniform. It was only after my child joined the school that the school has strict guidelines on grooming that they took seriously and a regular routine to check on students as well as to keep their discipline checked. I understand that the teachers, school manager and discipline master would patrol blocks near school or shopping malls to look our for students who misbehave, I saw this that it is beyond their set duties to perform such task that they too took pride on ensuring that the school uphold to the standards they values. It is natural to transform a disciplined learning environment into a conducive one for students and staffs. I would say a big well done and thank you for all the people there on behalf of my child who is graduating soon.

This school is one of the top schools in Yishun. Well-known for the good discipline, good academic results produced out.
But the teachers internally, competing to produce top students from their own class. The last that I heard off. Good in a way that helps your child to strive for better results. -
Anyone’s kids starting sec 1 in 2016 at YSTSS?

hi everyone, my son just finished O levels and he did very well for his O levels. I recall the hours the teachers spent last year in motivating and pushing the Sec 4 cohort. I am so proud to say my son went to YTSS.

Open House on 15 July 2.30pm. One of the best sec schools in Yishun. -
My wife was an Alumni and we badly wanted my son to get into YTSS due to its excellent reputation. He was struggling in Pri sch but managed to boost himself up to get into Express at PSLE but we opted for him to join YTSS at NA and have no regrets. He loves the school and convienient location and support from the teachers have been fantastic. He is now 1 of the top students in the level. Where else his frens who went to Express in other less reputable schs are now slacking off. Alot of character moulding is also positively presented by YTZens wherever i see them. Highly recommended!

Jaydazzlerz,
May I ask what TScore your son scored that make you decide to let him attend NA in YTSS instead of Exp in another school? -
My daughter is joining ytss school, this year. I had a little idea about this school, when I put this as top choice among o level schools. Now i am happy that i have chosen this school. The teachers are really caring.
I had some problem with my dds hmt choice. I informed about this to mother tongue hod. In spite of not having hmt in the school (they only have chinese hmt here), the mother tongue hod took pains to call our language centre, email them (2 centers) about our requirement, send me a letter from principal, and update about the things thro email, to me. I had talked to her only once and she took the action on the same day itself. I am really very happy about this.
