Creating learning experiences that build confidence first and foremost is the most powerful thing we can do for students of our International School in Ipoh. The more confidence they have, the more they engage their curiosity to explore the world around them and take risks to learn and grow. Our students transform from 'keeping busy' to 'busy learning,' discovering new interests and gaining the confidence to say, “Yes, I can!”
Our students enjoy unparalleled global learning experiences through the International School Partnership programmes, including ILOS - International Learning Opportunities for Students. They connect with peers worldwide, engage in international exchanges, and participate in unique initiatives like ISP Model United Nations and ISP Filmmakers.
