In the late 1980s, there was an urgent need to upgrade the school facilities and to move to a spacious location. As rebuilding the school on the current 0.6 hectare land was not feasible, the school opted for relocation to a more spacious better-equipped facility. Between January 2002 and 2005, the school operated at two campuses, the Guillemard site and the holding school at Sembawang Drive. Chung Cheng High School (Branch) was renamed as Chung Cheng High School (Yishun) with effect from January 2006.
