Raffles Institution Lane is a lane leading from Bishan Street 21 to the shared entrance of Raffles Institution (Secondary) and Raffles Institution (Junior College).
The nearest Mass Rapid Transit station is Marymount.
It was formerly known as Bishan Lane, but was later changed to its current name, Raffles Institution Lane, after school authorities asked the Government to give them a more "special" name.
