Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road) is a Methodist all-boys' secondary government-funded school situated at Barker Road in Newton, Singapore. It is a member of the Anglo-Chinese family of schools in Singapore. It offers the Singapore-Cambridge GCE Ordinary Level Certificate and SBB full subject-based banding G1, G2, and G3 courses for its students from Sec 1 to Sec 4/5. Students may then move on to Anglo-Chinese Junior College or Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) if wanting to continue this ACS tradition. ACS was also the first school in Singapore to have a flower named after it, the Ascocenda Anglo-Chinese School orchid, a hybrid created by the school to mark its 116th Founder's Day on 1 March 2002. ACS has many partner schools, such as the Anglo-Chinese School (Junior) and Anglo-Chinese Junior College. The school is close to Newton MRT station sitting on Bukit Timah road
It was a full school which subsumed Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) as its primary school section until 1998, when the school split into two. The school has been based at the newly rebuilt Barker Road campus since 2003.
