History

Victoria Junior College was established in 1984 to replace the Pre-University classes in Victoria School (VS). The pioneer batch of 776 students was received with 51 teachers and 16 supporting staff. The outstanding results of the pioneer batch of students in the GCE 'A' Level examinations was to set the academic standard for succeeding generations of Victorians. [4]

Over the years, VJC has widely been recognised, based on MOE rankings and entry scores, as one of the top three junior colleges in Singapore that offer the 'A' Levels. VJC was also ranked the top junior college in the Ministry of Education's (MOE) ST ranking of junior colleges in 1995 and 2001, based on academic results. [2] More recently in 2019, it had the 4th toughest entry score amongst junior colleges offering the 'A' Levels. [5]

In 1989, VJC was the first and, until 2005, the only junior college in Singapore to offer Theatre Studies and Drama as an 'A' Level subject. [6] It also offered a university-level French curriculum as part of the Language Elective Programme until it was discontinued in 2006. [7]

Since 2005, VJC has offered the Integrated Programme, allowing students to skip O Levels and proceed to junior college. [8] The Victoria Integrated Programme (VIP) was implemented as a four-year programme starting from Secondary 3. In 2012 it was replaced by the six-year Victoria-Cedar Alliance Integrated Programme (VCA IP), in partnership with Cedar Girls' Secondary School and the affiliated Victoria School. [9] [10]

VJC was awarded the School Excellence Award in 2007, the top award in the MOE Masterplan of Awards framework. [11]
