Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Submit the online application and relevant fees. Once the online application form is completed, parents will receive an invoice for the non-refundable Application Fee and Registration Fee.
Participate in the Interview and Placement Assessment. Your child will be invited for an interview and a placement assessment designed to ensure the EtonHouse Malaysia program is appropriate for their abilities and needs. Parents are required to disclose any Special Educational Needs at this stage, and students with developing English proficiency may undergo further assessment by the English as an Additional Language (EAL) Department.
Receive the acceptance and complete enrollment. If the interview and assessment are successful, parents will be sent an acceptance email. To secure your child's placement, the Enrollment and Deposit Fee must be paid upon acceptance, with full payment of all remaining fees required before your child's first day at EtonHouse Malaysia.
The school does operate a waitlist system. If there is no immediate placement available for an applicant in the appropriate grade level at the time of application, their application will be transferred to waitlist status, and placement is offered as spaces become open and suitable.
The school does not advertise specific scholarship programs to prospective students.
Serving students aged 18 months to 12 years, the school follows an inquiry-based curriculum built on the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP), complemented by a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach for early years. It integrates subjects including English, Mandarin, Mathematics (using the White Rose framework), Science, and Arts. Notable facilities include traditional colonial buildings with gardens, a multi-sports court, a grass football pitch, and specialized learning spaces such as a dedicated Sensory Room and a Chef's Kitchen. A distinctive feature is the piano placed in a corridor, encouraging spontaneous musical engagement.
