Straits International School is located in Rawang, about 30 minutes northwest of downtown Kuala Lumpur, in a peaceful area surrounded by nature.

**The school offers great value with its excellent facilities at a reasonable price, and there are many foreign teachers. **While the school environment is very good, there are no amenities nearby, so commuting will be by car or bus. Currently, a condominium is being built in front of the school.

Rawang is located in the suburbs, so it takes about 40 minutes to an hour to get to the city center. It takes 30 minutes to an hour to reach the popular Mont Kiara area, and commuting time can be longer during rush hours. Therefore, it’s recommended to live near the school.

Straits International School is part of the ISP (International Schools Partnership) group, a global educational network. Straits International School, Asia Pacific International School, and Tenby International School are all part of the ISP group. The school environment is excellent, offering modern facilities such as science labs, an ICT room, a library, and sports facilities, ensuring a comfortable and efficient learning experience.

⚫︎Early Years (3-4 years old)

At Straits International School, Rawang, we believe that providing children with the best possible start to their education is essential. That’s why we implement the IEYC (International Early Years Curriculum) to focus on promoting children’s exceptional learning and development.

What is IEYC?

The IEYC is an educational program aimed primarily at children aged 3 to 6, designed to support their healthy growth and development during the early stages of learning. The goal is for children to acquire social and emotional skills through fun, meaningful, and self-paced learning experiences.

⚫︎Primary School (5-11 years old)

Through engaging lessons that stimulate critical thinking, our goal is to expand children’s knowledge across various subjects while fostering curiosity about the world. Teachers provide individualized support to each student, creating an environment that encourages growth and supports their learning journey.

⚫︎Secondary School (11-16 years old)

This period is when students are encouraged to maximize their potential. Growth occurs in academic, creative, social, interpersonal, and sports domains. Learning experiences both inside and outside the classroom help students develop into responsible, capable young individuals.
