Temasek Polytechnic (TP) is a post-secondary education institution and statutory board under the purview of the Ministry of Education, Singapore.

Established in 1990, TP is renowned for its law and design programmes. It is also the first and only polytechnic in Singapore to offer a law programme.[1]

History

1989–1995

In June 1989, Tony Tan the Minister for Education announced that a third polytechnic is being considered and in April 1990, Temasek Polytechnic was established with an initial enrolment of 735 students. The polytechnic originally set up at Baharuddin Vocational Institute's premises at Stirling Road and the vacated premises of Raffles Institution at Grange Road. Due to increased enrolment and the introduction of new courses, three more campuses at Kim Seng, Bukit Merah and Portsdown Road were acquired to house the polytechnic's student population.

1995: Moving to a permanent location

In September 1995, the permanent campus for Temasek Polytechnic was completed and it moved to its current location in the town of Tampines.[2]

2012–present: Logo redesign, construction of foyer

Temasek Polytechnic underwent a logo redesign, sporting a fresh new look to reflect the vibrancy of the school. The TP Auditorium Foyer began construction in 2010 and was completed in 2013. McDonald's and Subway are available to both staff and the general public.

In 2022, Temasek Polytechnic changed its school motto to Creating Tomorrow.[3]

Polytechnic Foundation Programme

The Polytechnic Foundation Programme (PFP) was introduced in 2011 for students in the Normal (Academic) stream to be offered an opportunity to gain direct entry into Polytechnic diploma programmes with their 'N' Level certifications starting from 2012 onwards. Top students of the cohort each year would be offered the programme to skip their 'O' Level studies and instead enrol into a polytechnic of their choice to complete a foundation year before embarking on their respective diploma programmes. During the foundation year, students would take introductory modules that would expose them to their courses of studies so that they would cope better in their first year. There is no GPA requirement to advance to Year 1, as long as students pass all of their modules during Year 0. Although they would also be graded in Year 0, the GPA will not count towards their cumulative GPA when Year 1 commences.[4]

The Centre for Foundation Studies (CFS) in Temasek Polytechnic was established in 2011 for students admitted into their PFP studies (Year 0).[5]
