HELP International School Kuala Lumpur

At a glance

Where a detail is not officially published we mark it clearly rather than guess. Always confirm current figures with the school.

Curriculum and academics

HELP International School teaches a British pathway from the early years. Primary blends the National Curriculum for England with the International Primary Curriculum and a Singapore mathematics approach, while lower secondary draws on the International Middle Years Curriculum before pupils move into Cambridge IGCSE. Sixth form leads to A Levels, with the school running a leadership focused programme alongside the academic timetable.

Teaching is in English throughout and the school has built a reputation for a broad co curricular offer as well as classroom results. It sits within the wider HELP education group, a long established Malaysian name in schools, colleges and higher education.

Families choose HELP for a full through school British route at a keener price than the premium campuses. Read our pillar guide to the British curriculum and use our Kuala Lumpur city guide to compare it with the other British schools in Kuala Lumpur.

HELP International School fees

HELP International School fees sit in the value to mid band for Kuala Lumpur. We describe the band rather than fix the page to a single number, because the school revises its schedule each year and bills differently by stage. Parents should plan for the surrounding components as well as tuition.

• Registration fees: one off charges applied at enrolment.
• Annual tuition: billed per year and rising through the grades.
• Examination fees: Cambridge IGCSE and A Level entry charges in the upper years.
• Extras: transport, meals, uniform, trips and activities.

For the citywide picture our guide to international school fees in Kuala Lumpur divides schools into value, mid and premium tiers, and you can compare bands by stage in our Kuala Lumpur primary fees and Kuala Lumpur secondary fees breakdowns. Confirm the current figures with the school.

Admissions

The main intake follows the academic year, with applications reviewed ahead of the start of term and mid year entry where a year group has space. Admission runs through an application, previous school reports and an age appropriate assessment in English and mathematics.

Sixth form entry considers prior attainment given the demands of A Level study, and the school encourages families to visit the Subang campus before applying. Contact the admissions office to confirm availability and any English language support.
