Founded in 1968, the school was the first secondary school to cater to the population of Singapore's satellite town, Toa Payoh. First Toa Payoh Secondary School was merged into Bartley Secondary School in January 2016.

  The school operated at two campuses up to 2003. In 2004, First Toa Payoh Secondary School merged with Upper Serangoon Secondary School, and moved from its original site, Lorong 1 Toa Payoh, to new facilities at Toa Payoh East. It was officially opened on 1 April 2005 by Dr. Ng Eng Hen, Member of Parliament for Bishan–Toa Payoh GRC, also the Minister for Manpower and Second Minister for Education.
