What are the schools in Malaysia like?
When we asked about the schools in Malaysia, they said...
"It is a good school. Make contact with the teachers and HM, all are eager to help but they are not mind readers - if you have a problem share it with some who can help," commented one expat when asked about Lodge International School in Kuching.
"I would suggest that if parents want their children to go to an international school, they should send them to a large, well-established school with an excellent reputation. I would avoid local schools with international departments until they were well-established, with a proven track record. Alternatively, I would suggest considering homeschooling which enables parents to closely monitor their child's learning and builds trust and communication within the family," remarked one expat living in Kuala Lumpur with children attending Sri Murni.
