At UCSI International School (UIS) Kuala Lumpur, the combination of the Cambridge International Curriculum and the International Primary Curriculum during primary school lays the foundations for secondary school and the rigorous IGCSE exams. Our multinational teachers are well-qualified to deliver the curriculum, and our makerspace, science labs, and studios enable students with hands-on learning opportunities.
As part of this evolutionary leap in educational needs, UIS Kuala Lumpur has also been inducted as the first Finnish Experience Flagship School in Malaysia since August 2021. Through this holistic partnership, the school will be introducing four new tech-based modules: Code School Finland, Eduten Playground, Grapho Game, & School Day to provide a truly 21st Century learning experience for all students. The inclusion of these modules is designed to inculcate skills such as coding, gamification, robotics, IT, communication, creativity, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence in students, preparing them for the ever-changing 21st Century world.
Beyond that, UIS Kuala Lumpur has established The EdTech Centre, a one-stop technology and learning hub to enable students, teachers, parents and the community to interact with one another on the growing importance of the 21st Century Skills. These skills, among others, consist of creativity, collaboration, communication and critical thinking by leveraging emerging digital technologies to increase the reach and impact of education. This platform is set to redefine the outcomes of youth and to heighten the quality of education for students across the board.
UIS Kuala Lumpur focuses on Eight Critical Characteristics in our learning content and experiences: Character Education, Global Citizenship Skills, Innovation & Creative Skills, Technology Skills, Interpersonal Skills, Personalised & Self-Paced Learning, Problem-based Collaborative Learning, and Lifelong Learning. Supported by Apple Education, our students use tools and resources such as the Everyone Can Create & Everyone Can Code programmes to learn IT, design, robotics, and computer science. The rapid advancement of technological innovation, global competition, and a push towards a knowledge-based economy require that our students have a repertoire of soft and hard skills. We therefore place a strong emphasis on technology, character education, and co-curricular activities, forming a truly holistic education for the 21st century.
Through Character Education, we aim to develop high achieving students who demonstrate virtues such as integrity, honesty, and empathy. At UIS Kuala Lumpur, we believe in creating opportunities for students to develop essential life skills such as creativity, leadership, teamwork, communication, resilience, and an entrepreneurial spirit that will prepare them for the future.
UCSI is a great place to study.
The environment is conducive, good school facilities and teacher's all friendly.

This is the best international school I had never seen; teachers are professional and patient for student. School environment is great. Swimming pool, basketball field and even the musical instruments. It’s the best for every child.

It was not an easy decision to change schools for my daughter, especially during pandemic, but I don't regret making it happen at all.
My daughter attends Virtual School classes every day and she really likes her teachers a lot. We are yet to join CCAs but looking forward to doing so after MCO as we've seen the facilities and my child wants to attend swimming and badminton classes.
Overall, I am happy with the school: administration, facilities, foreign teachers; so, considering for my younger one in future.

My eldest son joins Year 7 this year. He was very impressed with the environment and facilities in UISKL.
Every Monday, he looks forward to swimming before classes. He speaks a lot about his teachers and his new friends.
We can see his eagerness and joy in attending school.
Thank you to the Principal, Mr. Chris, all the friendly teachers, admin staffs and marketing.
I will recommend my friends to enroll into UISKL to experience the Finnish education system and teaching tools using Apple technology.

My son is a high-functioning autistic kid and found it difficult to adapt himself to our national school curriculum. I think he was truly demotivated and seemed 'lost' in his school lessons as well as hardly shared what he had been taught and learned in the school to his parents.
Right now, after he has been transferred to UISKL for more than 1 month, I can feel that he enjoys going to school again and telling us how fun about the subjects that are taught in UISKL when he comes home. Since he's still 'new' in UISKL, he still struggles with English comprehension and essay writing which still requires extra handholding from both teacher and parents for a longer period. I wish he is able to overcome this weakness & continue to grow with confidence in his social & communication skills in the coming months & years in UISKL.
Note:
By the way, my kid told me with broad grin that he had a good time with the swimming coach for his first CCA this year when he came back home. He is looking forward to having more enjoyable CCA in the coming weeks.

Great school, teachers and staff. Both my children joined the school during the online classes. They settled in and adjusted very well to the friendly school environment. Teachers are caring and helpful. They have a good standard of teaching that emphasizes on the importance of values. The school also responded to parents’ concerns in a very respectful and approachable manner.

My daughter is one of the pioneers that starting here this year. I am very satisfied with all the help and professionalism shown by the staffs and teachers.
Every week the teachers will send the parents updates and learning theme for the week. I am very impressed with the contents that they are imparting to the kids, for example how do we learn, whats the best way to learn, how does the brain absorb information. The other time was describing the toys. How many categories there are for toys, which toy is programmable or remote controlled, how many ways to play with the toys? Are these toys waterproof?
I believe these are important critical thinking skills that will inspire the kids to learn, to think instead of following orders given by the adults.
The administration and the teachers handle well in this unprecedented online E-learning from home.
We could not wait for the school campus to be fully open so that our kids can run freely at the huge campus and interact with the teachers!

Professional and caring teachers, helpful staffs, everyday mandarin class, tech class with iPad and other various activities.
My two kids enjoy the school a lot and love to go there every single day.
If you are willing to bring up your kids in a creative and multicultural environment, there is no reason not to choose UCSI international school KL.

My children LOVE this school. The facilities here are amazing that my children can't wait to return to school physically. They're still excited even now with the virtual school setting. All the staff and teachers are helpful and they're willing to go all the ways making better learning experience for the children. Small class size allows teachers to cater for special needs children. My daughter feels more comfortable to participate in other creative ways despite her special condition.
