At ISKL, we understand how important a decision it is to choose an international school. The school you choose will help build the foundation upon which your children’s aspirations will be realized and where they will develop the knowledge and skills to thrive in a 21st-century world.

To support your search in finding the right international school for your children, we’ve compiled five reasons ISKL is a great international school and how embracing ISKL’s vision can benefit your children.

A future-ready education

Our world is everchanging, and being able to adapt to these changes is an essential 21st-century skill embraced by great international schools.

By providing our students with an enriching academic experience designed to support their learning and development, our students become self-directed learners that are better prepared for their future.

Global opportunities

ISKL provides students with the benefits of many global opportunities through memberships with many local, regional, and international school associations. Our artist-in-residence programs invite industry experts like authors, musicians, and sporting coaches from different parts of the world to talk about their journey and inspire our students.

ISKL’s students also have the opportunity for national and international travel through our service learning program, our High School Global Action Programs (GAP), sports tournaments, and more.

ISKL understands that every student is unique in how they learn and offers students various opportunities, experiences and pathways that could best nurture their overall development.

One of ISKL’s greatest forces is our governing body of Board Directors, consisting of volunteers that are parents of enrolled students, elected by all our enrolled student’s parents. This volunteer basis governing body exercises the executive powers of the Society of the International School of Kuala Lumpur and sets aside their biases, preferences and community affiliations to work together to make ISKL the best place it can be for all its students.
