MAHSA International School (MISKL) is one of Malaysia’s leading day and boarding schools committed to providing an enriched British-based education leading to IGCSE and A Level qualifications. Established in 2017, the school is set within a dynamic environment in Bandar Saujana Putra where students are supported to reach their fullest potential to succeed in a fast-changing world. Many MISKL students progress to prestigious universities worldwide.
MISKL is a registered Cambridge School that offers a broad and balanced British curriculum that is forward-looking. It encompasses the total learning experiences for students to acquire important subject knowledge and obtain international qualifications that are recognised across the world, as well as the skills to become competent global citizens.
The programmes prepare students for the rigours of exams and life beyond by ensuring they are well acquainted with critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Students are fully supported to flourish to face the future with confidence and flexibility to enjoy exploring the unknown.
The curriculum is complemented by an array of enrichment opportunities that further enables students to develop their skills and interests. MAHSA has also partnered with BVB, a professional German sports club best known for its football team, to deliver a specialist coaching programme for aspiring athletes in the school.
In addition, teenagers can participate in an online Future Skills Programme designed to help students develop 21st century skills like communication, critical thinking and creative problem solving to prepare them for university and the workplace. This programme is a collaboration between MAHSA and EtonX, a subsidiary of the internationally acclaimed Eton College.
Students whose native language is not English will be assisted through the English as a Second Language (ESL) programme so that they can participate confidently in their regular classes.
The MISKL campus is nestled away from the hustle and bustle of city life, offering a remarkable atmosphere for learning. It features purposefully designed indoor and outdoor spaces that facilitate experiential opportunities which are an integral part of the school’s curriculum. Students are able to make use of a wide range of first-rate facilities, including IT lab with iMac computers, resource-filled library, design and technology labs, music and dance studios, technology-equipped classrooms, seminar rooms, auditorium, swimming pool, multisport courts, football field, and hostel.
Teachers at MISKL are a skilled team of professionals who are dedicated to support students to acquire confidence in their own ability to lead successful lives in the future. They are also trained to encourage students to be inquisitive learners by asking questions and listening to others with an open mind. MISKL promotes a culture of ongoing professional development.
MISKL believes in the primacy of excellent pastoral care and takes every opportunity to deliver this, as students learn best when they feel happy and safe. On top of that, the school strives to form healthy parent-school partnerships.
The MISKL boarding house is carefully managed with round-the-clock security, alongside an on-call doctor and professional support staff. Boarders benefit from being under a carefully curated environment which prepares them for life after school. Living away from home provides invaluable opportunities for personal growth such as independence and understanding priorities. Dorm life is also great for students to be exposed to a diverse community that binds them together.
MISKL offers students a stimulating environment where technology is an accelerator of learning. It enhances delivery of course materials and helps students develop digital literacy to make increasingly smart choices.
Annual tuition fees start from RM 18,300 per annum.
MISKL is part of the umbrella of MAHSA Education Group. This creates a seamless transition for MISKL students to pursue their degree of choice in MAHSA University or other world-renowned universities. In addition, scholarship opportunities will be awarded for all courses in MAHSA University, along with career counselling services.
MISKL delivers a continuum of stimulating programmes that provides an all-round education coupled with academic excellence, from preschool all the way through to higher education.
This is the first of MISKL programmes for children to receive a fun introduction to the world of education. The youngest learners are exposed to many meaningful first-hand experiences in which they explore through ways that make them happiest to learn, and this fosters a lifelong love of learning from an early age.
Once children pass the age of 5 years, they continue their journey through the primary years. Diverse subject areas are covered, including languages, mathematics, science, digital literacy, humanities, the arts, design, music, and personal, social and physical education. Students who require extra help in English are supported through the ESL programme, so that they can keep up with classes as quickly as possible. Lessons are taught in small groups in order for students to receive the personalised attention they need to optimise their development. Combined with an array of other enrichment opportunities, students receive a truly holistic education.
This five-year framework provides excellent preparation for the A Level programme through application-based teaching and learning. Students in this stage and onwards have specialist teachers for each of their subjects and they will sit for a globally recognised International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) exam at the end of Year 11. Throughout, students learn and practise soft skills that can be transferred to many different areas of their lives.
The A Level programme caters to students in their final 2 years of schooling before going to university. There is a comprehensive list of 19 subjects to choose from, allowing students to align their studies with their academic strengths and personal interests. For a successful experience, students are guided by a mentoring partnership.
MISKL A Level graduates have the option to pursue their undergraduate degrees in MAHSA University or other top international universities. MISKL students have a strong track record of earning places in highly competitive university courses.
