The German School Kuala Lumpur (DSKL) provides an education grounded in the German national curriculum, including the syllabus of the Federal State of Thuringia. Students from Kindergarten through Grade 12 can pursue recognized German qualifications like the Hauptschulabschluss, Realschulabschluss, and the German International Abitur (DIA), a university entrance qualification. The school offers a range of extracurricular activities for students from Year 3, including sports like football, badminton, and volleyball, as well as music lessons, arts and crafts (e.g., pottery), drama, and activities such as cooking and board games. A unique offering is the Guest Student Program, which provides scholarships and supervised housing for motivated students from Germany wishing to complete their Abitur or other qualifications in Kuala Lumpur. The school has recently moved into the Eurocampus KL, which they share with Lycée Français de Kuala Lumpur.
