At a glance
The Alice Smith senior campus is the secondary school of KLASS, the British international school founded in Kuala Lumpur in 1946. It sits on a purpose built site on Jalan Equine in Seri Kembangan, south of the city, with sports, science and performance facilities of a scale the central primary campus cannot hold. Among international schools in Kuala Lumpur, few schools offer this depth of established British secondary provision, and the senior campus is where the school's IGCSE and A Level results are made. The school runs as a charitable foundation rather than for profit.

Curriculum and academics
The campus delivers Key Stage 3 in Years 7 to 9, Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel IGCSE across Years 10 and 11, and a two year A Level sixth form in Years 12 and 13. The breadth of A Level subjects is wide for the region, covering sciences, mathematics, humanities, languages, economics and creative subjects, which lets students assemble combinations that selective universities expect. As a British curriculum school the senior campus follows the same National Curriculum for England framework used by thousands of schools worldwide, and its leavers progress to universities in the United Kingdom, Australia, North America and Asia. Ask the school for its latest university destinations rather than relying on summary claims.

Admissions
Secondary admission is rolling, anchored to the August academic year start. Year 7 is the busiest entry point and forms waiting lists, so early registration is sensible. Applicants sit curriculum based assessment in English and mathematics and submit recent school reports and references; the school may interview the family. Sixth form entry into Year 12 is conditional on IGCSE grades, with subject specific requirements for A Level choices. To see whether the senior campus matches your child against other options, our school finder quiz shortlists three Kuala Lumpur schools by age, stage and budget.
Location and who goes there
The Jalan Equine campus is in Seri Kembangan, in the southern Klang Valley, drawing families from the southern suburbs, the Mines, Bukit Jalil and Kajang, as well as central families who commute or use the school bus. The location trades the central convenience of the primary campus for space, which is why the secondary site holds the larger sports and performance facilities. The student body is international, with British, European, Korean, Japanese, Malaysian and Australian families prominent.
