There are a lot of good reasons to consider changing schools. Maybe are concerned with how your school has dealt with the pandemic and are looking for a school that has successful ways of teaching both in person and at a distance. Perhaps your child is dealing with social issues and you’re looking for a more positive atmosphere.

Many families desire a nurturing environment that focuses on academic preparedness, as well as social and emotional growth - where children gain confidence to pursue their unique passions. Parents and students alike want to know they are going to find community and receive the support they need on their educational journey.

“Alice Smith constantly encourages us to be inquisitive and to be creative, and I think it is here where students are cultivated to be curious and to always think outside the box.” - Valerie Ho, Alice Smith Scholar, 2017 - 2019, University of Warwick (CIMB ASEAN Scholarship)

At Alice Smith, we utilise a curriculum modelled on the British National Curriculum to ensure your children receive an internationally recognised education that will prepare them for any path they choose.

Our innovative approach to a traditional British education helps our students foster character, emotional intelligence and grit.

One advantage of utilising a curriculum that is widely used internationally is the ease at which our students are able to adapt to learning environments elsewhere.

Our curriculum is designed so students can easily pick up their education no matter where they end up in the world.

Through an innovative, 21st-century approach to the traditional British Curriculum and purposefully-built facilities, we attract a world-class teaching staff with a significant percentage of them being expat teachers.

Our teachers not only have a proven track record of professional success in achieving the best academic outcomes for their students, but they also have an impact beyond the classroom through leadership experience and through the provision of developmental experiences for children outside the curriculum; such as, through sports coaching, adventurous activities, the arts or intellectual enrichment.

Each member of our team have the following five characteristics:

1. A love of working with young people
2. Unparalleled knowledge of their expertise and commitment to lifelong learning
3. Collaborative, a true team player
4. Hard-working
5. Positive and solutions-focused

As the oldest not-for-profit British school in Malaysia, we invest our funding into providing a quality education for your children. All of our decisions at Alice Smith are made with the success of your children in mind, and our student success rates prove this.

The benefits of being a not-for-profit include:

1. All resources go back to the school
2. There is greater parental involvement
3. There is better governance

Our academic results consistently rank us as excellent, placing us among the best British international schools in the world.

Our students consistently achieve high marks in both (I)GCSE and A Level examinations. Year after year, we are incredibly proud of our students’ attainment and our 2021 results are no exception.

Our 2021 Sixth Form cohort achieved a 100% pass rate with 67% of all grades at A* or A and 82% A* - B. 

At (I)GCSE, 60% of students were awarded grades 8-9 ( equivalent to A* and above), 76% A* or A (grades 9-7) and 98% were awarded A* to C (grades 9-4).

Our Primary and Secondary Campuses are located only 20 minutes from one another. They are also a short distance away from Kuala Lumpur’s exciting city centre with the Secondary Campus just over a 30 minute drive and the Primary Campus only 10 minutes away from the downtown core.

“The travel times are very manageable and although the Secondary Campus is further away geographically, because of the new highway and the fact we are heading out of the city we experience much less traffic, it is only about 10 minutes extra travel time.”

- Andrea Grassby, a mother of children attending both campuses at the Alice Smith School
