Sri Emas International School

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

Sri Emas International School runs the International Primary Curriculum in the junior years and Cambridge IGCSE across secondary, taking pupils to internationally recognised qualifications at the end of upper secondary. What sets it apart is its proprietary ACE EdVenture method, built around assess, create and execute, which threads real world projects and entrepreneurial challenges through the timetable.

Teaching is in English and the school is an official Cambridge examination centre, hosting both its own pupils and private candidates for IGCSE. The approach suits families who want a recognised British style qualification alongside a strong emphasis on applied thinking and creativity.

Families choose Sri Emas for that blend of a Cambridge pathway and hands on learning at a value price point. Read our pillar guide to the British curriculum and use our Kuala Lumpur city guide to compare it with the other Cambridge schools in Kuala Lumpur.

Sri Emas International School fees

Sri Emas International School fees sit in the value 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 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.

Because the IGCSE years are demanding, entry into upper secondary considers prior attainment, and the school encourages families to visit the Petaling Jaya campus to see the ACE EdVenture method in practice before applying. Contact the admissions office to confirm availability and any English language support.
