Saint Joseph's Institution, Singapore : ウィキペディア英語版
St. Joseph's Institution, Singapore

St. Joseph's Institution (SJI) is a Catholic school in Singapore. It is an independent school, providing an all-boys secondary education from Secondary 1 to 4 and a co-educational pre-university education from JC 1 to 2.
Founded in 1852 as St. John's Institution, it is the third oldest educational institution in Singapore (the oldest being Raffles Institution and second oldest being Saint Margaret's Secondary School). It is also the oldest Catholic school in Singapore.
The school provides an education to students of all races and religions.
In 2013, SJI became a dual-track school offering an Integrated Programme (IP) track and O-level track. As a dual-track school, the school will be able to serve students with a wider range of academic abilities. As part of its IP, the school offers a six-year programme leading to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). The school had its first IP intake at Secondary 1 and Secondary 3 in 2013 and 2014 respectively while the first IBDP intake was in 2013.
==History==

SJI was founded in 1852 as the first missionary establishment of the La Salle Brothers in the Far East. The endeavour was initiated by Rev Fr Jean-Marie Beurel MEP, who offered six Brothers from Europe to start the school using a former chapel as premises. Within a year, an attap hut also had to be erected to accommodate all the students. The school was known as St John's. On 19 March 1855 (Feast of Saint Joseph), the cornerstone of a new school building was laid, and from that date, the school came to be known as St. Joseph's Institution. The new central classroom block was completed in 1865, though further expansion of the facilities continued well into the 20th century. The school had 426 students in 1900. This grew to almost 1200 in 1914, and 1600 in 1922. With the student population expanding, a temporary branch school was opened, which eventually led to the building of a second school – Saint Patrick's School, Singapore – in 1933.
During World War II, prior to the fall of Singapore to the Japanese, the school was used as a Red Cross hospital and housed a unit of the Civil Defence Force, the A.R.F. (''Air Raid Precautionary Group)''. On 16 February 1942, a bomb hit the school courtyard during the war, leaving a crater, but the main building remained unscathed.
During the Japanese Occupation, the school was renamed to Bras Basah Road Boy's School. The Brothers were soon asked to 'resign'. The school and hostel were run along military lines. However, 3 weeks after the Japanese surrender, the Brothers returned and St Joseph's was re-opened and normal lessons resumed.
In 1954, St. Joseph's Junior School was housed in St. Michael's School, now known as St. Joseph's Institution Junior.
In 1975, SJI's first year pre-university classes and some its teachers were transferred to the newly opened Catholic Junior College.
In 1988, SJI shifted into a new campus at Malcolm Road situated just off the neighbourhood of Toa Payoh, beside the Tanglin Community Centre. The beautiful old campus with its distinctive semi-circular wings was gazetted by the Singapore National Heritage Board as a national monument. It now houses the Singapore Art Museum.Under the administration of Brother Paul Anthony Rogers, SJI saw its peak in growth. In 1995, a Performing Arts Centre (PAC) and a new wing to house Secondary One students were added.
In 2002, SJI celebrated its 150th anniversary.
In 2006, SJI, upon the urging of the Economic Development Board, began an international school. (SJI International ) began classes in January 2007. The School started with just over 100 students but now boasts more than 1200 students across both its Elementary School and High School. This remarkable success is due to the dedication of the Old Boys and the faith of the parents. SJI International High School offers the IGCSE and the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP), similar to the Senior School of SJI today.
It was also the first year in which only pure sciences was offered to every candidate.
In 2008, the school was re-validated with the Singapore Quality Class Award, obtained, for the second time, the Best Practice Award (Teaching and Learning) and attained the Best Practice Award (Student All-Round Development) in the MOE External Validation exercise. The school received consecutive Sustained Achievement Awards in Academic Value-Added, Sports, Uniformed Groups and Fitness.
In 2009, SJI was recognized by MOE with a pinnacle award – The School of Excellence Award. The School Excellence Award (SEA) recognises schools for their excellence in both education processes and outcomes. It is the highest and most prestigious award in the Masterplan of Awards framework in MOE, Singapore.
In 2013, SJI took in her first intake of students under the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), with an inaugural batch of 80 students admitted. SJI also bolstered its academic staff and upgraded its facilities for the IBDP student block to provide the necessary infrastructure and support for the students to develop to their fullest potential.
SJI has been a (Gold Value Added ) school for the GCE 'O' Level examinations.
