Former Shuqun Secondary School site in Jurong East may yield up to 1,800 homes
The previous Shuqun Senior high school shut in 2019 following its merger with Yuhua Senior high school. The site at 450 Jurong East Street 21 is located within 400m of the upcoming Toh Guan MRT Stop on the Jurong Region Line, and is nearby to amenities such as Yuhua Village Market and Yuhua Primary School.
A few of the nearest household kick off in the Jurong or west region involve the 440-unit Sora on Yuan Ching Road, the 347-unit The Sen and the upcoming 863-unit Tengah Garden Residences, notes Sun. According to URA monthly developer sales information in February 2026, 90 of 347 units at The Sen and 209 of 440 units at Sora had actually been sold.
The site is close to (around 600m) to the Jurong East MRT Interchange Terminal (East-West and North-South Lines), shopping malls, and the Jurong regional center, that is extremely practical for future residents, Sun observes. It is also beneficial for locals doing work in Tuas or Jurong workplaces or industrial areas. She anticipates “demand to be strong” should HDB condos or private real estate be developed on the plot.
“Private housing demand in the west are going to still boost as even more condos in Tengah will certainly be acquiring MOP in the next 4 to five years, and numerous HDB owners will certainly be ready to upgrade to an exclusive home,” she adds.
Other college locations that have been relocated or closed up– and consequently set aside for non commercial property development– consist of the previous Temasek Primary and Secondary Schools locations at the junction of Upper Changi Road and Bedok South Road; Bedok Town Senior High School in Bedok North; Qiaonan Primary School at Tampines Street 11; Angsana Primary School (Tampines Street 22); and Siglap High School in Pasir Ris.
URA has suggested raising the progression intensity of a previous school location in Jurong East, in a step that might produce dramatically extra houses.
On April 10, URA published a suggested amendment to the Master Plan 2025, that includes raising the plot proportion of the 3ha area at 450 Jurong East Street 21 from 3.5 to 5.0. The revision is planned to uphold future residence project and meet housing need.
According to Christine Sun, chief researcher and planner at Realion (OrangeTee & Tie), the area might potentially produce about 1,150 to 1,250 HDB flats, or around 1,750 to 1,800 private condominium units.
