Former Shuqun Secondary School site in Jurong East may yield up to 1,800 homes
The former Shuqun Senior high school shut in 2019 following its merger with Yuhua High school. The place at 450 Jurong East Street 21 is located inside 400m of the upcoming Toh Guan MRT Stop on the Jurong Region Line, and is near to amenities such as Yuhua Village Market and Yuhua Elementary School.
According to Christine Sun, primary analyst and strategist at Realion (OrangeTee & Tie), the location could potentially produce around 1,150 to 1,250 HDB flats, or around 1,750 to 1,800 private condo units.
URA has recommended increasing the growth level of a past academic institution spot in Jurong East, in a step that might generate dramatically more homes.
“Private housing need in the west will still increase as even more flats in Tengah will be getting MOP in the following 4 to 5 years, and several HDB owners will certainly be ready to improve to an exclusive home,” she includes.
Several of the closest residential kick off in the Jurong or west region include the 440-unit Sora on Yuan Ching Roadway, the 347-unit The Sen and the upcoming 863-unit Tengah Garden Residences, notes Sun. According to URA monthly developer sales data in February 2026, 90 of 347 units at The Sen and 209 of 440 units at Sora had been sold.
Other institution spots that have actually been relocated or closed– and subsequently earmarked for non commercial development– include the former 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 Grade School at Tampines Street 11; Angsana Primary School (Tampines Street 22); and Siglap High School in Pasir Ris.
The place is close (about 600m) to the Jurong East MRT Interchange Station (East-West and North-South Lines), shopping center, and the Jurong regional centre, which is highly hassle-free for future locals, Sun observes. It is also efficient for residents doing work in Tuas or Jurong offices or industrial areas. She anticipates “demand to be robust” should HDB condos or private housing be built on the plot.
On April 10, URA released a suggested change to the Master Plan 2025, which includes raising the plot ratio of the 3ha area at 450 Jurong East Street 21 from 3.5 to 5.0. The alteration is planned to support future residential property development and fulfill real estate need.
