Alice Smith School was established in 1946 by Alice Fairfield-Smith, a biology graduate who set up the school at the end of the Second World War to educate the children of Kuala Lumpur's British community. Today it is the oldest not-for-profit British international school in Malaysia, with around 1,450 students from more than 50 nationalities.
The school runs on two campuses about 20 minutes apart. The Primary Campus on Jalan Bellamy, close to central Kuala Lumpur, takes children from Early Years (age 3) to Year 6. The Secondary Campus on Jalan Equine in Seri Kembangan, Selangor, opened in 1998 and teaches Years 7 to 13. Students follow the National Curriculum for England throughout, sitting GCSE and IGCSE examinations in Year 11 and choosing from around 25 A Level subjects in the Sixth Form.
Alice Smith is a member of the Council of International Schools (CIS) and FOBISIA and has been inspected as a British School Overseas. Primary pupils have specialist teaching in Mandarin, French, Bahasa Malaysia, music, PE and swimming. Contact the admissions team for current fees and to arrange a visit to either campus.
