The Alice Smith School - Primary Campus

The Alice Smith School's Primary Campus is located on Jalan Bellamy, a pleasant, leafy area adjacent to the old Royal Palace. Its central location means it is well-served by public transport, with various bus routes and proximity to train and monorail stations, providing connectivity across Kuala Lumpur. The surrounding area is an established neighbourhood, allowing for relatively easy access to central amenities, residential areas, and other parts of the city.

The Primary Campus is structured into Early Years (preschool to Year 2) and Junior (Year 3 to Year 6).

The school is a co-educational institution and does not offer boarding facilities.

The school provides learning support for students at the Primary Campus through its dedicated Learning Support Unit (LSU) department. This team of Special Educational Needs (SEN) teachers and Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) work with students, teachers, and parents to create individual education support plans. Support can include one-on-one lessons or small group withdrawals. The Primary Campus specifically offers in-house access to professional services such as a speech and language therapist, an occupational therapist, and specialist dyslexic support, though spaces for these programmes are limited and may incur additional costs. Progress is carefully tracked and reported to parents termly.

The Alice Smith School has a strong affiliation with the United Kingdom. It is recognised as the first British international school in Malaysia, established in 1946.

The school does not have an affiliation with a particular religion

The school day runs from 7:40 AM to 2:20 PM for most, with Early Years having a soft start (7:40 AM - 8:15 AM).

Break is 9:50 AM - 10:20 AM.

Lunch varies by age group (Early Years: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM; Years 1-2: 12:20 PM - 1:20 PM; Years 3-6: 11:40 AM - 12:20 PM)

The school offers a school bus service covering most major residential areas in Kuala Lumpur. This service is managed by a transport provider. Parents can utilise the Bus Buddy app to view their child's bus routes, timings, and track location, as well as manage schedules. While not a door-to-door service, common stop points are established. Morning pick-ups typically occur between 6:30 AM and 7:10 AM. Buses for normal dismissal depart around 3:00 PM, with later departures for optional after-school activities.
