Our unique campus hosts two schools: Tenby International School, which offers up to Cambridge IGCSE and Sekolah Sri Tenby, which offers the Malaysian National curriculum.
Sekolah Sri Tenby started as Sekolah Sri Pinang in 1981 and was the first private school in Penang. It later integrated with Tenby International School in 2011 and moved into its purpose-built educational facility.
Our wide range of facilities include a full sports complex, science, design and technology laboratories, while a six-acre green campus provides ample room for over 60 co-curricular activities , covering the spectrum of our students’ passions – from languages to STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts and Maths) skills. Under the Tenby Tigers, we are proud to have a number of teams and individuals representing our schools at state and even national level.
We boast a truly international and cosmopolitan atmosphere, where 33 different nationalities learn together in a state-of-the-art campus which sits within the suburb of Tanjung Bungah. Here, we place a strong emphasis on providing students with global perspectives and experiences, and encourage students to participate in activities such as The Duke Of Edinburgh’s International Award and International Learning Opportunities for Students programme, international trips and more.
We want our students to be critical learners and to take ownership of their own learning. Accordingly, we strive to provide every opportunity for them to meet and exceed their potential in all areas, and our philosophy of Amazing Learning is equipping them for local and global success.
This approach has resulted in outstanding student results in both the National and International sections of the school. Our results at IGCSE in the majority of subjects exceed the Cambridge world averages. As such, most of our students go on to study in top universities of their choice across the world.
All this has helped us build a reputation as one of the best value schools in the area.
