Former Shuqun Secondary School site in Jurong East may yield up to 1,800 homes
The previous Shuqun 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 Terminal on the Jurong Region Line, and is near to amenities like Yuhua Village Market and Yuhua Primary School.
URA has proposed raising the growth strength of a former school site in Jurong East, in a move that might yield significantly a lot more homes.
Other institution locations that have been relocated or closed up– and consequently allocated for non commercial property development– consist of the former Temasek Primary and Secondary Schools sites at the junction of Upper Changi Road and Bedok South Road; Bedok Town Secondary School in Bedok North; Qiaonan Primary School at Tampines Street 11; Angsana Primary School (Tampines Street 22); and Siglap Senior High School in Pasir Ris.
The site is close-by (around 600m) to the Jurong East MRT Interchange Terminal (East-West and North-South Lines), shopping malls, and the Jurong regional centre, that is very convenient for future homeowners, Sun observes. It is additionally efficient for homeowners working in Tuas or Jurong workplaces or industrial areas. She anticipates “need to be sturdy” should HDB flats or private property be developed on the plot.
Several of the closest non commercial kick off in the Jurong or west region consist of 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 been marketed.
On April 10, URA released a proposed amendment to the Master Plan 2025, that includes elevating 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 non commercial project and fulfill real estate need.
According to Christine Sun, primary analyst and strategist at Realion (OrangeTee & Tie), the site could potentially produce approximately 1,150 to 1,250 HDB flats, or around 1,750 to 1,800 exclusive condominium units.
“Private housing demand in the west will continue to increase as even more flats in Tengah will certainly be obtaining MOP in the following four to 5 years, and many HDB owners will certainly be prepared to upgrade to a private home,” she includes.
