About this school
Fairview International School Ipoh is one of five Malaysian campuses of Fairview International School, which began as a single Kuala Lumpur school in 1978 and now also operates in Subang Jaya, Penang, Johor Bahru and Scotland. Across the group, Fairview teaches more than 2,000 students from over 65 nations and describes itself as Malaysia's largest IB school network.
The Ipoh campus serves primary and middle-school students. It draws on the UK National Curriculum and the IB approach, offering the Primary Years Programme and the Middle Years Programme, with students preparing for MYP e-assessment. The school says it is the only authorised IB World School in Perak. Students who continue to the IB Diploma can do so within the Fairview network.
The purpose-built campus sits near Ipoh city centre against a backdrop of limestone hills. Classes are kept small, and the school stresses inquiry, social and emotional development, and close ties between teachers and parents.
