    Fairview School is a rapidly expanding group of International Baccalaureate World Schools in Malaysia and beyond. Fairview IB education was offered to 300 students on a single campus. Today, we boldly embrace 3000 IB students from 55 countries on 5 strategically located campuses in Malaysia. Indeed Fairview has charted its course while achieving milestones IB education has never witnessed in Malaysia.
    Apart from just physical changes in infrastructure in all of our campuses making them more student-friendly, wireless with high-speed broadband services, and providing the much-required facilities befitting an International Baccalaureate(IB) World School, the academic faculty has seen a major transformation.
    Continuous professional development, the backbone of any learning organization has seen the introduction of consistent and sustainable initiatives in a calculated move to ensure that teachers are thorough and developed regularly with the latest in educational initiatives and postgraduate teaching qualifications. With 4 campuses authorized for the Primary Years Programme(PYP) and the Middle Years Programme(MYP) of the IB and the first in Malaysia to contain the two programs under one roof, it is our duty to only offer nothing but the best in professional development for our teachers.
    Serving the Malaysian International Community since 1978, Fairview is a global network of 5 schools currently located across Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Subang, Johor, and Ipoh). Four of our schools are authorized IB World Schools for children aged 3 – 19, with the fifth, Fairview Ipoh at the candidate stage. Fairview has grown from 300 IB students in one campus to over 3000 students from 55 countries and a teaching faculty of over 300 teachers spanning across 5 campuses. Our network of schools is authorized for 10 IB Programmes, making us the champion of IB Education in Malaysia.
    The time-tested UK National Curriculum forms the backbone of our educational program within the IB Curriculum Framework. The Fairview experience grounded by core pedagogies like inquiry-based learning, Concept-based teaching, and learning, and trans-disciplinary pedagogy makes for a truly unique and formidable educational journey.
    The belief that ‘good teachers make for good learning’ is deeply ingrained into the Fairview ethos. Teachers are nurtured through an advanced systematic professional development program. Lifelong learning takes on a new meaning at Fairview as teachers and learners both learn together and from each other! Every year, over 40 teachers are recognized for their contribution to the school by being offered a Masters in Education Full Scholarship in association with Sheffield Hallam University (UK). With over 120 Masters's students in Fairview at any one time, lifelong learning, a unique culture that believes in continuous personal development, self-efficacy, and pushing the boundaries of education is fostered. At Fairview, we believe it is only when our educators approach education with humility, an open mind, and excitement at the possibilities within that we may be able to unlock the potential in the students placed in our charge.
    The 2015 results of the IB Diploma program bear testimony to the unique Fairview culture. By committing to the delivery of a holistic academic program integrating the development of skills (Approaches to Learning – ATL), values (Learner Profile), and experiential learning (Community, Action, Service – CAS), we can nurture learners who are academically inspirational and holistically balanced. Our students achieved outstanding results with the highest score being 42 out of the maximum of 45. While the world average stood at 30, Fairview’s average was a stunning 36 with 61 % of our students gaining either 6 or 7 points out of the maximum of 7 and a 100% pass rate.
    In 2015, our students expectedly received offers and scholarships for admittance at world-renowned universities like London School of Economics (Scholarship – Economics), Kings College (Scholarship – Dentistry), University of British Columbia (Scholarship – Engineering), and University of Melbourne (Scholarship – Chemical Engineering).
    Annual Expeditions to local and international destinations bring learning outside the 4 classroom walls, creating contextual connections to the educational experiences. Students bring home invaluable experiences as they scale the Great Wall of China whilst empathizing with the incredible sacrifices borne by the laborers, all the time making connections between cause and causation, finally reflecting on its relevance to the current day.
    Students at Fairview are introduced to the concept of international-mindedness from the many Fairs, Celebrations, and Food Festivals held in the School. However, to truly internalize the concept, the student organizes FairMUN (Model United Nations) conference that brings together over 300 students from around the region to discuss, challenge, and explores the many impossible decisions made by world leaders. Fairview also organized the World Scholars Cup competition, bringing over 3000 students together from around the world to KL.
    A curriculum based on the best research evidence and successful teaching and learning strategies for children of diverse backgrounds and learning needs. A vibrant center for educational, recreational, cultural, and social programs for children and adults in an international community that draws upon and contributes to the vitality of the international community through an innovative and focused curriculum. A culture of continuous professional growth for all staff, Fairview functions as a “Hub” for educators throughout the world, regularly engaging teachers in a wide range of learning opportunities that promote ongoing professional growth.
    Fairview International School aims to be a vibrant center for educational, personal, and social growth in the world providing a rich academic curriculum for children in the local and international community. Through the use of best practices in teaching and learning, Fairview International School will educate, motivate and inspire students in an educational environment that stimulates learning in a nurturing social and emotional climate. Fairview School is committed to raising the standards of education not only in its schools but in the region through continuous training and development in the best possible teaching pedagogies.
