Ping Yi Secondary School was established on 24 September 1983. The founding principal was Mrs Ng Gek Tiang. The name ‘Ping Yi’ may be traced to Pin Ghee Public School which was a school in Chai Chee founded in 1930. The ‘kampong’ school had to close to make way for redevelopment in 1976. It was decided to keep the school’s name for a new government primary and a secondary school to be built in the area. The name ‘Ping Yi’ which is the Hanyu Pinyin of ‘Pin Ghee’, thus has a history. The first character of the school name ‘Ping’ means fairness and impartially, while ‘Yi’ means dignified bearing.
