                                          Spectra Secondary School was established in 2013 as a Specialised School
                                          for Normal Technical students.

                                          We prepare our students for further studies in the ITE through our
                                          customised academic and vocational curriculum.

                                          We focus on three broad areas:
                                          1. Nurturing students’ sense of self-worth, self-confidence and motivation
                                             so that they lead purposeful and happy lives.
                                          2. Enhancing students’ literacy, numeracy and digital skills so that they
                                             experience success in school, work and life.
                                          3. Stimulating students’ interests and career aspirations through a blended
                                             curriculum (academic and vocational) that deepens their knowledge,
                                             skills and attitude.
