At a glance
Kingsley International School opened in 2011 at Kingsley Hills in Putra Heights, a planned township in the southern Klang Valley. The primary section serves the early and middle childhood years and feeds directly into the school's secondary stages, which run through Cambridge Lower Secondary and IGCSE. It is a Cambridge curriculum school, so the primary programme is the entry point to an internationally recognised pathway rather than a local syllabus. Because it sits outside the dense central districts, it tends to price below the long established premium names, which makes it a practical option for families based in the south west of greater Kuala Lumpur. Our hub on international schools in Kuala Lumpur puts the school in context against its city peers.

Curriculum and academics
The primary section teaches the Cambridge primary curriculum, which is grounded in the National Curriculum for England and structured into clear stages of English, mathematics and science alongside the wider foundation subjects. Younger children begin with a play and inquiry based early years programme, then the primary grades build literacy and numeracy with a strong emphasis on English as the language of instruction, supported for children who arrive with English as an additional language. Pupils also study a range of languages and humanities, with Mandarin and Bahasa Malaysia commonly offered in a Malaysian setting. From the upper primary years the pathway continues into Cambridge Lower Secondary and then IGCSE, so the primary stage is the foundation of a longer Cambridge route rather than a standalone phase. The school positions itself as a mid priced Cambridge provider, and the British curriculum it follows is explained in full on our British curriculum guide.
Kingsley International School Primary fees
Kingsley International School Primary fees sit in the mid band for the Kuala Lumpur area, below the premium central schools but above the value tier. Annual tuition rises by year group through the primary years. We do not publish a single headline figure here because the school revises fees each year; the admissions office issues the current schedule on request, and you can sense check the band against our guide to international school fees in Kuala Lumpur. Beyond tuition, plan for a registration fee, a deposit and optional school bus charges, which matter for families commuting from elsewhere in the Klang Valley. To model the total budget across year groups, our fee calculator brings tuition and the common extras together.

Admissions
Admission runs on a rolling basis across the academic year. Places are confirmed after an age appropriate assessment and a review of previous school records, with the youngest children typically assessed through observation and a short taster session rather than formal testing. The school asks for recent reports and references, and may meet the family before offering a place. Because the primary years fill steadily, families relocating to the southern Klang Valley should apply as soon as a place is foreseeable. For a structured comparison of Kingsley against other shortlisted primary schools, our compare tool sets the details side by side, and the best primary schools in Kuala Lumpur guide gives the wider field.
Location and who goes there
The campus sits at Kingsley Hills in Putra Heights, a residential township in Subang Jaya to the south west of central Kuala Lumpur. It draws families living in Subang Jaya, Puchong, USJ and the surrounding southern Klang Valley suburbs, where housing is more spacious and commutes shorter than the city centre. The community is a mix of Malaysian and international families, reflecting the residential catchment rather than the diplomatic quarter. For families weighing a central location against the quieter, more affordable south west, the Kuala Lumpur city hub sets out how the neighbourhoods and school clusters compare.
