Tanglin Secondary School which was located at Commonwealth Avenue in the area called Tanglin Halt was officially opened by Mr Ong Pang Boon, Minister of Education,on 16 October 1964. It was Singapore’s first technical school, and the first institution in Singapore to admit female students to technical courses. It was renamed Tanglin Technical Secondary School in 1969.
In 2014, the Ministry of Education announced a merger of Clementi Woods Secondary School with Tanglin Secondary School, taking effect in 2016. This was taken into consideration of the critical student population of the two schools, that a merger will allow for more unitised resources for a more holistic education environment. The merged school retains the name and campus of Tanglin Secondary.
