Tanglin Secondary School Ranking and Review 2017 Singapore.

It is with great pride and excitement that I write this message to you as the newly appointed Principal of Tanglin Secondary School. 2017 promises to be a very exciting year for all Tanglinians as we embark on a new chapter in the school’s long history of 52 years. After more than a year of preparation, Clementi Woods Secondary (CWD) has officially merged with Tanglin Secondary School (TSS). CWD was formed nine years ago when Ghim Moh Secondary and Jin Tai Secondary were merged. Now TSS is enriched by the wonderful melange of history, traditions and practices of these three schools.
