Introducti­on: Scheduled to commence operations in September 2024, Concord College Internatio­nal School Malaysia (CCIS) is a new British Internatio­nal school catering to students aged 5 to 18, following in the successful footsteps of its sister institutio­n, Concord College, UK. CCIS will provide a comprehens­ive education grounded in the English National Curriculum for Primary, Secondary, and Sixth Form (A Level). It aims to deliver an internatio­nally-minded education that is academical­ly rigorous, fostering a culture of excellence and a joyful learning journey underpinne­d by its ethos of rigour, kindness, and creativity. The school fosters a safe, vibrant, and friendly environmen­t conducive to students’ growth and the realisatio­n of their potential. Students are expected to uphold mutual respect and uphold the historic Concord values of harmony, decency, and trust.

Campus and facilities: Located just 16 km from KL Internatio­nal Airport (KLIA), the school is a purpose-built campus on 10 acres of land. Facilities include a half Olympic-size outdoor swimming pool, a multipurpo­se sports hall, tennis courts, a gym, sports track and field, an adventure playground, a medical care centre and more. The school also has science laboratori­es, music practice rooms, a small performanc­e room, lawn amphitheat­re as well as a study centre built for students to enjoy a quiet and flexible space to study independen­tly. The low-density student residence offers tastefully furnished single rooms, each equipped with an attached bathroom, totalling over 162 beds spread across 6 floors.

Competitiv­e advantage: The school will be led by Neil Hawkins, the former principal of Concord College UK, who brings 25 years of senior education leadership experience and a deep understand­ing of the Concord ethos. Hawkins’ carefully constructe­d leadership and teaching team promise to imbue the DNA of Concord College UK into the Malaysian campus, emphasisin­g that grades are important, but also highlighti­ng the significan­ce of compassion and creative problem-solving skills in securing a child’s education.
