There are currently over 170 international schools in Malaysia today. Each international school is unique in terms of their offerings such as the type of the curriculum followed. The British Curriculum is by far the most popular curriculum offered by international schools in Malaysia. However, it is common for international schools to offer more than one curriculum and academic qualification. For example, a school may offer the American Curriculum up until secondary school level and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at pre- university level. The range of international curricula offered in Malaysia is wide, with over ten curricula and examinations in total.
The Advanced Level qualification, also known as A Levels, is a well known UK subject-based qualification for students aged 16 and above. Students who take up this course will study over the course of two years which will lead them to qualifications recognised for entrance into the higher education institutions in the UK and many other countries worldwide.
Important facts about the A Levels in Malaysia:
