Fondée en 1965, The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL) a été la première école internationale entièrement accréditée en Malaisie et accueille plus de 1 600 élèves venant de plus de 60 pays. Elle a également été la première école en Malaisie à proposer le IB Diploma Programme. De nombreux diplômés fréquentent les universités les plus prestigieuses du monde et continuent d'améliorer la vie des communautés à travers le monde. L'ISKL est une école privée à but non lucratif, gouvernée par les parents, accréditée à l'international par le Council of International Schools (CIS) et aux États-Unis par la Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). L'ISKL, première école accréditée IB en Malaisie, est également autorisée par l'International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). L'ISKL met fortement l'accent sur le service et la durabilité dans toutes ses divisions et est membre de l'organisation Eco-Schools et de la Green Schools Alliance. The International School of Kuala Lumpur promeut une approche holistique de l'éducation depuis plus de 50 ans. Ses diplômés fréquentent les meilleures universités du Royaume-Uni, des États-Unis et du monde entier ; la promotion de 2018 a reçu plus de 3,9 millions de dollars en bourses. Année après année, les résultats IB et AP des élèves de l'ISKL dépassent les moyennes mondiales et de la région Asie-Pacifique. Les enseignants sont recrutés dans le monde entier, 75 % possèdent un master ou un doctorat dans leur discipline ; plus de 85 % ont neuf ans ou plus d'expérience d'enseignement. L'école offre à chaque élève l'accès à un large éventail d'opportunités dans les arts, l'athlétisme, le service et les études, avec de nombreuses possibilités de voyages dans la région, notamment via le Global Action Program (GAP) du lycée et le programme Malaysia Week du collège.

Personnel/programmes dédiés aux élèves ayant des besoins d'apprentissage particuliers

The Life-Centered Education (LCE) program is designed to meet the needs of students who have significant intellectual, learning, or developmental differences. Students accepted into the program receive personalized academic programming with embedded social-emotional learning from highly trained special educators. Each Student Success Plan (SSP) is strength-based and intentionally designed to foster student independence and self-advocacy. Instruction is delivered in multiple locations within the school including the LCE classrooms, multi-sensory rooms, and general education classrooms. Each student’s SSP indicates the degree of participation in mainstream academic courses, including IB courses, specialist classes (art, music, & physical education), and after-school activities based on the student’s abilities and strengths. We believe that opportunities to engage in classes and activities with peers is a key aspect of inclusion programming. In 2019, ISKL won the prestigious International School Leader Awards in the Initiative for Inclusion category for its LCE program. The awards were hosted by the UK’s International School Leader Magazine and included nominations from schools in 38 different countries. The program is offered schoolwide for students in Elementary, Middle, and High School. More information can be found here: https://www.iskl.edu.my/education/learning-at-iskl/lceprogram
