You’re on the toilet, and suddenly your kid barges in with an urgent matter: “Ma, why is the sky blue?”
Or perhaps you’ve been dumbfounded by the occasional “Dad, how can I make the world good?”
Questions like these remind us that our children don’t just need answers from books—they need the curiosity, confidence, and skills to thrive anywhere in the world.
For many of us, that dream feels tied to a global education. But do we really have to send our children halfway across the world to get it?
Good news: we don’t.
A world-class education at Sunway International Schools
Sunway International Schools (SIS) give students the option of choosing between the Canadian, Cambridge, and International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes at its KL school. Meanwhile, the Canadian and IB programmes are available at SIS Iskandar Puteri in Johor.
The variety of educational programmes available means SIS offers a pathway that matches your child’s strengths, whether it’s the inquiry-driven Canadian system, the rigorous Cambridge curriculum, or the globally recognised IB.
They’re bringing the ‘Finest British School Experience’ to Malaysia
Here’s where it gets even more exciting: SISKL has recently partnered with Magdalen College School Oxford (MCS), one of the UK’s most historic and prestigious schools.
Your child can now experience the richness of a British-style education, but right here at home, without the distance (and cost) of sending them overseas!
This collaboration brings the best of British education to SISKL—blending MCS’s tradition of academic excellence with SIS’s global, values-driven approach.
Through this enhancement, SISKL students gain a unique advantage, an elevated Cambridge education that opens doors to the world’s top universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, and the Ivy League.
Shaping well-rounded individuals
We all want our kids to do well academically, but we also want them to grow into people who can work in teams, show empathy, and have leadership skills.
At SIS, it isn’t just about exams—it’s about nurturing minds, building characters, and preparing them for life.
From sports to performing arts and community service, students are encouraged to step outside the classroom, discover their passions and learn to see the world through different lenses.
SIS makes learning fun, too. They host events like Career Week, Pyjamas Day, Sports Day and more, all designed not just for enjoyment but to spark creativity and confidence among students.
Experience the global education yourself this weekend!
On 11 October, SISKL is inviting you to its Open Day, where you’ll have the chance to tour the campus, meet educators, join experiential classes and explore SIS programmes first-hand.
