Community

At ISKL, we recognize the importance of parents feeling connected to our dynamic and inclusive school community. From the moment your child joins ISKL, we want you to feel at home, and we are fortunate to have the support of our active Parent Teacher Association (PTA) to help make that happen.

The PTA is a parent-led organization that connects and supports our entire community, serving as a bridge between parents, teachers, administration, and ISKL’s Board of Directors. All parents are encouraged to attend PTA-organized events, which include opportunities to volunteer, enrich our students’ learning experience, and participate in social gatherings.

In addition to organizing a fantastic calendar of community-building events, the PTA is a friendly resource for families settling into Kuala Lumpur (KL) and a great way to make new friends. If you're relocating to Malaysia, don't forgot to check out our FAQ page for more information about living in KL!

All Panthers are encouraged to contribute to creating a better world, and ISKL’s Service & Sustainability program provides our entire community with opportunities to actively support both local and global initiatives.

Through our diverse network of community service partners, all community members are invited to help address real-world issues across key areas, including:

• Education & Youth Empowerment
• Environmental Sustainability
• Social Welfare & Health
• Animal Welfare
• Community Engagement & Advocacy

By working together, we can make a lasting impact and strengthen our shared commitment to service and social responsibility.

ISKL, in collaboration with the United Nations Refugee Agency UNHCR, established a Refugee Teacher Training program to offer training for teachers at refugee learning centers throughout Kuala Lumpur. 

The initiative is designed to assist teachers at refugee schools who are responsible for teaching students between 4 and 21 years. The program started with a handful of ISKL teachers hosting about 40 teachers from the refugee community and grew as informal sessions soon evolved into formal workshops.

Over the years, the program was further enhanced through a partnership with UNHCR. This allowed full courses to be delivered at ISKL to over 200 teachers and leaders from learning centers in the refugee community.

ISKL is committed to contributing to the community through this partnership by sharing knowledge and resources to help upskill and support our fellow teachers and in turn, help refugee students.
