Tenby School Tropicana Aman

This campus is situated in Bandar Tropicana Aman, next to Kota Kemuning. The area is accessible via several major expressways, including KESAS, LKSA, SKVE, ELITE, and WCE, ensuring connectivity to Kuala Lumpur and surrounding areas.

Tropicana Aman is an area known for its natural scenery, featuring an 85-acre central park and a 7km trail for walking and biking. The area combines residential living with amenities, promoting a community-oriented lifestyle.

The international school is divided into Early Years (ages 3–5), Primary (ages 5–11), and Secondary (ages 11–16)

The school is co-educational and operates as a day school.

The school's Special Education Needs (SEN) department offers tailored support for students with unique learning needs. Specialist educators provide personalized attention, adapting lesson plans, and offering emotional and social support to facilitate smooth transitions.

The school is not officially affiliated with any particular country, but it follows the British curriculum and assessment system.

The school does not have any religious affiliation and operates as a secular institution.

School day timings vary slightly by age group: Early Years (Kindergarten) is from 8:30 AM to 2:30 PM. Primary School (Year 1 & 2) runs from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, while Year 3 to Year 6 and Secondary School operate from 7:40 AM to 2:30 PM. A variety of after-school enrichment programs and activities are available.

School transportation services are managed by external providers. Parents arrange directly with these providers for student pick-up and drop-off.

TIS Tropicana Aman delivers an enhanced British curriculum for students aged 3 to 16. The Early Years programme focuses on foundational skills and play. The International Primary School combines the English National Curriculum with the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), emphasizing inquiry and creativity. For the International Secondary School (ages 11-16), students follow the National Curriculum for England, preparing for International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations, with options across three tailored academic pathways.

The school prioritizes student wellbeing through robust pastoral care. Key provisions include a House system with dedicated House Leaders and Tutors to foster belonging and celebrate achievements. A Student Buddy system ensures new students feel instantly welcomed. Daily check-ins with teachers or tutors provide a stable point of contact for students. The school also has a qualified School Counsellor available and emphasizes a "Choose Respect Charter" for guiding expected behavior.

While not a specialist SEN school, Tenby considers applications from students with special educational needs on a case-by-case basis. The evaluation process involves an interview with the SEN Counselor or Head of School and a trial class to assess the student's needs and the school's capacity to support them.

This individualized approach ensures that any support provided aligns with the school's resources and the student's requirements. The school aims to accommodate a range of learning needs, provided they can be met within the existing educational framework.

The school's English & EAL Department offers tailored English as an Additional Language (EAL) support, designed to meet individual language proficiency levels. They use globally recognized assessments like the Oxford English Test and Password EAL Assessment to determine needs. The goal is for all students to achieve at least B2 proficiency in English, and the program includes bespoke induction with intensive and targeted support.

Student wellbeing is a key focus, supported by a robust pastoral care system. This includes a House system with dedicated leaders and tutors, a Student Buddy system, and daily check-ins. A qualified School Counsellor is available for support, and the school promotes a "Choose Respect Charter" to guide student behaviour.

Tenby Schools has a comprehensive Group Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy. This policy outlines procedures for responding to concerns about a child's welfare, preventing unsuitable people from working with children, and ensuring children's safety and wellbeing. The policy is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect best practices in child protection.

Attend an Open Day or Schedule a Tour. The school holds regular Open Days and campus tours where families can meet staff, view the facilities, and learn more about the curriculum and co-curricular offerings. These visits are optional but recommended, especially for overseas families.

Student Assessment and Interview. Depending on the year group, students may undergo an academic assessment and an informal interview. This step helps determine readiness for the year level applied for and allows the school to understand the student’s learning needs.

Offer of Place and Enrolment. If the application is successful, families will receive an offer letter. To secure the place, parents must pay the registration and enrolment fees and confirm acceptance by the stated deadline.

The school does not publicly advertise academic or co-curricular scholarships for the international stream. There are no formal scholarship programs currently listed for incoming students. All admissions are based on standard eligibility and application criteria.
