A company I'm applying to has asked me to fill out my secondary and high school education on the application Word form they provided.
Unfortunately, I can't remember all the subjects I studied from 5 and 7 years ago, and I don't have transcripts or certificates to hand.
I have asked them if its OK if I just write my Bachelor/Master degree. If they insist, how do I go about getting transcripts or certificates?

Right, well done. As you've already asked them, what question do you want us to answer?

Usually you go with highest education and leave out highschool or middle school. I can't imagine there be any curriculum you'd need to list from that other than you graduated. However it's unclear what you're trying to ask here.

Oh, they also asked for photocopies for the qualifications I have. But I don't even know where the secondary school/high school certificates are?...Oh, I am just worried how HR would respond?

It is generally a good idea to keep education certificates permanently, just in case. Your family, or whoever you lived with at the time, may have your secondary and high school certificates.

I find it a bit hard to believe you don't remember what subjects you studied only 5 years ago - I can remember the grades I got at high school 21 years.

Before, I get to my full answer, which will offer some suggestions as to how to get this info if you or your parents do not have any copy of your certificate/coursework, I have to ask - what is it the employer is looking for? If it's proof of your graduation from Secondary/HighSchool, a copy of your transcript/diploma from your Bachelors/Masters program should suffice. If, for some reason, they're looking for a transcript, it's very likely your old school has a copy of that.
If you don't personally have a copy of your high school diploma, you can ask your school for a copy - they should have one on record.
Most employers are really only looking for whether or not you have graduated from secondary/highschool at all, so a full breakdown of your coursework probably isn't necessary - if they asked for it, again, this is something that you could ask for from the school itself. They should have some type of electronic record of your certificate and/or transcript of your coursework.
If for some reason you cannot get the records from the school, and you have no way of finding it yourself, you could also consider asking your Bachelor/Masters school if they have a copy of said certificate/transcript on record - they should, if you applied for their school and got in/completed your coursework.
And if none of these sources have a copy of your certificate, then you can simply include a copy of your Bachelors/Masters, with an explanation on your cover letter/email that you attempted to contact your secondary/Highschool and Bachelors/Masters schools for a copy of your certificate/transcript, and that none of them had it on record - that you are therefore presenting a copy of your Bachelors/Masters certificate, as proof that you have completed your secondary/highschool degree.
