The student enrolment is drawn from among the top 10-15% of secondary schools. The unique aspect of the student population is that it comprises students from diverse social and financial backgrounds, regardless of their previous affiliation to school and religion. Given the location of the college, a large proportion of students used to come from neighbourhood schools in the region. In recent years however, the bulk of the student population are from the established or top neighbourhood schools from around the island.

Despite its humble beginning, the college has achieved much in the areas of academic, sports, arts and culture over the years. The school is currently a proud recipient of the following awards: Singapore Quality Class, People Developer Singapore, and MOE Best Practice Award (Teaching and Learning).
