1. 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.
2. Complete the Application Form. Parents are required to submit a completed application form along with supporting documents such as the child’s birth certificate, passport, previous school reports, and vaccination records. A non-refundable application fee of MYR 1,000 is payable at this stage.
3. 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.
4. 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 may operate a waitlist for year groups that are at full capacity. When this occurs, applicants are placed in order of completed applications and supporting documents. Priority may be given to siblings of current students. Places are offered as they become available.
