Mountbatten Vocational School for special needs students to shut in end-2025
After 50 years, Mountbatten Vocational School will shut this year and hopes of setting up a new institute have fallen through. At its peak, there were more than 70 students enrolled. Parents said the closure will affect students' chance at a livelihood beyond school, while the authorities said they will support affected students and families. MOE partially funds Mountbatten Vocational School, while the Singapore Association for the Deaf manages it.
