CHMS lists three key accrediting/credentialing touchpoints publicly on its site: GCE O Level, PSR, and Microsoft Innovator Educator Expert (MIEE). The school offers GCE O Level examinations as part of its secondary program, and it participates in the Brunei government PSR examinations for primary years. The school and its staff have also earned Microsoft-recognized educator credentials (MIEE).
Over the past five years, CHMS has publicly documented several school-level recognitions: 1) Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert (MIEE) recognition for CHMS staff during the 2021–2022 period, with 23 CHMS teachers honored. 2) A 2021–2022 CHMS staff awards ceremony recognizing long service (30 staff), outstanding teacher awards (7 staff), and MIEE recipients (23). 3) In 2025, the CHMS BSB team earned First Runner-Up at the IET Faraday Challenge. These awards are presented to CHMS (the school or its staff/team), not individual students.
Chung Hwa Middle School (CHMS), Bandar Seri Begawan, is a private, co‑educational campus serving preschool through secondary levels in Brunei's capital. The school is organized into three divisions: Kindergarten for ages 3–6, Primary School, and Secondary School. In Primary, the curriculum follows Brunei's 21st Century Education System, with Lower and Upper Primary delivering language‑rich instruction across 12 subjects, all taught in English, while Malay and Chinese are taught as languages. Lower Primary students take part in the government PSR examination at the end of Primary, and Upper Primary follows the same pathway. In Secondary, the school follows a 21st Century Education System framework for Year 7–8, with Year 11 culminating in the GCE O Level, and the Malay Islam Monarch Concept (MIB) integrated into the program. English is the medium for most subjects, with Chinese and Malay taught as languages; CHMS also emphasizes extracurriculars, including Academic Societies, Uniform Groups, and Sports Clubs. The principal is Kho Guik Lan. The campus is located at Jalan Berangan, Bandar Seri Begawan BS8211. Coordinates: 4.8948373, 114.9446416. CHMS celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2022.
