Sunway International Schools (SIS) are the established private international schools under Sunway Education Group (SEG). SEG has over three decades of success in private and higher education in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. Institutions under SEG are owned and governed by the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation (JCF) and SIS therefore commits to excellence, humility, service to school and community, and quality holistic education that develops creative, collaborative, and socially responsible global citizens.

SIS’s first campus started in 2008 as a secondary school in Sunway City Kuala Lumpur. It offers two world-renowned school qualifications, i.e., Canada’s Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP).  As Malaysia’s only licensed Ontario offshore school that also offers the IBDP, SIS Sunway City KL is highly sought after and expanding to a new campus in 2023.  The new campus will offer kindergarten, primary and secondary, and pre-university programmes.

Every student has unique strengths, interests and talents. Teachers and programmes develop students according to their potential and bring out their best to achieve their respective goals. With ‘personalised learning', we create opportunities for different students to engage actively in their studies, goals setting, decision making, and self-development alongside appreciating differences and respecting others.

Our Vision is To be the international school of choice.

  • Provide quality holistic international education for the development of creative, collaborative, intellectually critical, and socially responsible global citizens.
  • Develop, support, and foster student achievement, well-being, and lifelong learning.
  • Committed to excellence, integrity, humility, service to school and community, and support the country’s aspiration in being an international education centre.

Sunway International Schools (SIS) focus on providing students with globally relevant and recognised school curricula that prepare them for success in higher education, future careers and beyond. We are the first and only international schools in Malaysia to offer the Canadian school curriculum and International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes.

Sunway International Schools' (SIS) history and future are closely tied to Sunway Education Group (SEG) which has a track record of more than 30 years and a reputation as a pioneer of private education in Malaysia. SEG institutions cover the full range of educational programmes from kindergarten to doctoral studies for Malaysian and international students and are owned and governed by the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation.

Choosing the right school for our children is an exciting process. This is partly because parents, guardians, and sponsors want to know who the school leaders, administrators, and teachers are. We welcome you to visit SIS to speak with our academic and administration teams or browse through our website to learn more about our school and the educators and professionals at the helm.

At SIS, experienced educators and heads of academic and administration lead and direct all programmes and activities students go through. School principals possess Ontario principal qualifications and have both the experience and professional training required by the International Baccalaureate (IB) to conduct IB programmes at our campuses. Each campus’s school management committee is accountable to the Board of Governors (or School Board) which comprises senior representatives of Sunway Education Group. As part of the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation, SIS’s strategic functions and direction are in keeping with the vision and values of its eminent Board of Trustees.

We selected Sunway International School for its IB track and emphasis on inquiry-based learning. The senior leadership team impressed us with their genuine interest in understanding our child's learning style and needs. They provided invaluable guidance through challenging decisions and crafted an educational plan that perfectly suited our situation.

A great private school that is based in Canada. Forget Mont Kiara, forget Sri KDU, come to SIS. It is very much worth the school fees. The teachers are great, the curriculum is easy to understand.
Side note: Food is great.

Sending my kids here from another international school, is the best decision ever.
My kids may not score with flying colors academically, but that's not our focus. They have learned to be more independent, more thoughtful, more responsible of their daily chores, and their friends.Who cares if you have the best doctors, best engineers, best accountants, but do not have the right attitude.This school helps to build my kids to be a responsible human, preparing them for the future.Thank you SIS!

One of the only international schools in Malaysia to employ foreign teachers. Teachers are competent and good at their job (speaking as a former student).

Had an amazing journey in this school. Inspirational, friendly and caring teaching staff (shoutout to Mr Owen, Mr Brims and Miss Shannon) , a tight knit student body from all walks of life, great facilities and education curriculum. School administrators are quite helpful although some of them might a little snide.

Very wonderful, kind and caring teachers, interesting school projects and assignments, holistic education, much emphasis on personal developments rather than just exam-oriented. Overall, an excellent school.
