Tenby International School

In what town or city is this school located?

Shah Alam

How would you describe this school? (i.e. American, British, International, Local, etc.)

British

What grade levels are represented at this school?

Nursery to year 13.

How do most children get to school everyday? (bus, train, walk, etc.)

Mostly by car, some by bus and few walk. I do see some early year kids going by bus and they are very tired end of the day travelling far from places like Hartamas. I don't feel that journey is worth for the little kids. A good kindy near home would be better.

How would you describe the facilities at this school? What extra-curricular activities are available?

Price at canteen reasonable, but not much international cuisine. The library is good although it is rather silly -- kids aren't allowed to use it after school while waiting for parents. The school has good facilities but doesn't, have changing room for PE though the kids are required to change.

What has this school done to help your child transition from the curriculum in your home country into the curriculum in your new country? Are there programs to prepare your child for repatriation?

The class teachers are wonderful and they give personal care and help with the transition when parents ask for it.

How would you describe the social activities available for parents through this school? Are there parent-teacher organizations?

No PTA, No social activities for parents.

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

chose if near, not worth travelling the distance.
