Alice Smith School



The Alice Smith School has provided a British-style education in Kuala Lumpur since its foundation in 1946. The school is open to students of all nationalities provided they can access the curriculum in the medium of English. "The School exists to provide the highest standards of British Education in an international context" is the mission statement. The English National Curriculum, adapted to the school’s local circumstances, forms the basis of the academic programme in the Infant, Junior and early Secondary School years, while a combination of home based GCSE and IGCSE courses are offered in Year 10 and 11. EdExcel (London) A-levels are offered in Year 12 and 13. In the past students have entered a wide range of leading independent schools around the world (but mainly in the UK) at the age of 11 or 13, but the vast majority now stay with the school to complete their education until their families leave. The Alice Smith School is now located on two sites following the opening of a new campus to the south of the city in September 1997. At Jalan Bellamy, the city centre campus offers an environment refurbished to meet the needs of infants and early juniors (Reception to Year 6). At the new campus at Equine Park, (15 minutes from the Commonwealth Games facilities and close to the Multimedia Super Corridor) five hundred seniors have access to Olympic standard sports facilities, seven science laboratories, two ICT suites and an intranet across the school, design centre, performing arts suite, dance studio, drama studio, theatre and library.
The Jalan Bellamy site is located near the royal palace, while Equine Park is situated in one of the fastest growing areas of the region between Kuala Lumpur and the government's new super city of Putra Jaya, which will become the location of all federal government departments in the next few years.

The Alice Smith School administers a wider variety of sporting and cultural extra-curricular activities and is particularly committed to a broad range of residential expeditions and trips for all students aged ten and above. The Alice Smith School commenced the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme in 1998-9, and offers the programme in Years 11, 12 and 13.
