Tampines Secondary School (TPSS) is a co-educational government secondary school in Tampines, Singapore. It shares the same campus as Tampines Primary School even though the two schools are not affiliated.
Tampines Secondary School opened in 1986.[1] In its first year, classes functioned at Pasir Ris Secondary School as the school building was still under construction, and was later occupied by Tampines Junior College until December 1986. It was officially opened in 1988.[2] In 2008, it shifted to a holding site in Bedok South Road and moved back to Tampines Street 12 in March 2010, under the Ministry of Education's PRIME upgrading programme.
In 2026, Tampines Secondary celebrated its 40th anniversary consisting of performance from their chorale, english drama, dance dynamics and many others.
