Another fake private school masquerading as an international school. It does not have the proper accreditation from CIS and EARCOS.

Teaching Quality :

The primary school is good, with experienced teachers and genuine care. I was there for the Year 6 Cambridge Checkpoint, and we were given past year papers to practice everyday. 

The secondary school, however, is so much worse. Many higher-ups only care about the school's name, not the students. Pupils who excel are the only ones who receive attention--those weaker ones just get left behind, without much care from the school. Many scholars have help from outside tuition. Fees are definitely overcharged

Take a LOOK at this note! ????????????

Terrible commercial fraud & cheating school. Registered for IGCSE Exam in May/June 2020 Damansara Height. This was suppose to postpone to OCT/Nov2020 in Cempaka Damansara Height. But the school can totally cancel the hosting of IGCSE exam & refuse to refund on the examination fee which has been promised to refund! But still trying to coverup that they will refund pending refund from Cambridge. All the phone number has been blocked & no one will answer ur emails or phone calls from financial to exam department!

Terrible. Staff is decent. I'm pretty sure all staff are obligated to rate 5 stars. Food is not great and overpriced. Most people are rude. Toxic teachers. Some teachers just don't care and blame students they don't like on everything. Obvious favouritism. I wish I could rate negative stars

Teaching Quality :

Horrible environment on learning! Secondary students are forced to learn unnecessary things that are not needed in life. Also, this International School needs logic and to be realistic. If you do not make a payment early, it will disable your school account. What a joke! And also, during Parent- Teachers Conference (PTC), teachers will only talk about negative things about your child. Secondary classes did not hit at least 25 students each, and they don't bother why. Some students can't mingle with friends and they don't bother. ALL THEY DO IS TO NOT BOTHER ANYTHING!!! All they want is money and I do not recommend this school to any children and parents.

Best International school out there In my opinion . Not the best teachers but mostly their quite skilled and stuff experienced. Ofcourse it has its flaws, the toilets are not always clean or the best but compared to other schools this school is an excellent choice. It prepares you well ahead from an young age. Has many extra curricular activists as well many programs for students to engage in which makes Schools an enjoyable experience. Realistically speaking, this is as good as it gets and if your thinking to send your child here I encourage you too it’s not a bad option at all.  It has great facilities and it also enforced creative thinking and encourages to students to develops other creative talents during their time in school which can be useful to them in the future.  However I must admit the fee is quite hefty but if your able to afford it It shouldn’t be a problem . But ngl I did face some issues with bullying but as time went on it thought me grow a tough skin therefore I wasn’t so easily hurt but other kids. The food provided isn’t the best but they do have a greta canteen which has an excellent option of food you may purchase

There are mostly local students in this school. Only several foreigners. If you prefer a school with high expat community, this may not be right for you. But my girl is able to learn the local cultures which is what I wanted. Teachers are made up of local and several expat teachers. So far, i have no complain about the teachers. They have helped my daughter a lot especially in English.
