Whitley Secondary School (abbreviation: WSS) is a coeducational government secondary school located in Bishan, Singapore.

History

The school was originally located at Whitley Road, and was officially opened on 1 October 1965.[1] In March 1992, the school was relocated to Bishan Street 24 at a cost of S$16 million.[2]

In 2006, the school celebrated its 40th anniversary and had its first musical gala followed by a musical festival night. On 22 October that year, the school organised a carnival where goods and art pieces were sold to raise funds for the major renovation of the Bishan campus.

The school was temporarily located at 430 Lorong 1 Toa Payoh, Singapore 319759 from 2006 to 2007.
