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 Johor (FISJ) an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School stands proud within a new purpose-built campus amid the bustling Tebrau area in Bandar Dato Onn. Easily accessible from Singapore and within minutes of the Senai International Airport, FISJ has attracted a fairly balanced diversity in the student population. Our main focus is to provide a rich academic curriculum and thus our advent into IB. Using the UK National Curriculum as our solid base and the IB curriculum framework to envelope it, we have devised a learning journey that matters to our digital-age students. Students no longer need to rely on one author’s perspective and memories textbooks to ace examinations. Students in Fairview are exposed to myriad approaches to learning, learn life skills rather than to score in examinations, share and collaborate in learning while at the same time take responsibility for their learning. Action and service form an integral component of the curriculum and the whole school community share in the learning experience. ‘An instrument a child’ – all students must learn a musical instrument as part of the curriculum. ‘Edu Resort’ –styled along the lines of an Outward Bound adventure, students experience a week in our very own beach resort in Port Dickson, Malaysia. Expeditions – Bi-Annual overseas expeditions for Middle school students build in the life skills of survival, camaraderie spirit, independence, taking calculated risks, caring, sharing, open-mindedness, and of course being reflective. Stress is placed on co-curricular activities and healthy competitions among other schools are encouraged. We offer a widespread range of uniformed groups, clubs, and games for all children ranging from the Primary Years to the Middle Years. We believe that the community must be part of the learning process of the students. Parents join in classroom learning experiences with students, partake in events and initiate activities that would be beneficial to the learning journey. Coffee mornings, carnival, National Days, traditional festivals, and other special days or events, like Pink Month, 30 hours fast for World Vision, and various other charitable activities are heavily patronized by our parent community. Our academic staff strength boasts of Ph.D. and Masters Holders in education and hail from several countries. All staff has to attend weekly professional development sessions apart from the mandatory workshops conducted by the IB Office. As the ONLY IB World School in Johor for the Primary Years and Middle Years Programme, I am proud to say that we have established a niche in IB education for the past 7 years not just for the 21st century and beyond but in general for a better world. Established in 1978, Fairview International School Johor Bahru (FISJB) is the premier international school in Malaysia that offers the whole suite of IB curriculum. Our highly qualified teachers, predominantly internationally trained and experienced teachers deliver quality education to students from pre-school to Year 12, culminating in the widely recognized IB Diploma. At FISJB, our students are encouraged to explore and discover in a learning environment that embraces individual abilities. 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.

The new generation of children exhibits skills and talents of unparalleled genius. The future belongs to those who are Knowledgeable, Inquirers, Thinkers, Principled, Communicators, Open-minded, Caring, Courageous and Reflective. This is why a complete, well-rounded personality has to have a balance of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual skills. Fairview Ipoh develops our curriculum to fit this requirement. We gladly offer a spectrum of activities leading to multiple experiences and the enrichment of our students. The International Baccalaureate (IB) philosophy, helps us to instill values in our children, where children are most open and receptive to acquire character values in a relaxed and conducive environment. The best skills for cognition, effective communication, negotiation, computing, stress management, and clarity of thought under pressure are learned, which form an indispensable part of any profession today and in the future. We are committed to building lifelong relationships, happy, confident young individuals, and a better human beings to make this world a better place to live. Our parents chose us for the same reasons as above. This is the core to how we build the school together!

Located conveniently in the thriving center of Subang Jaya, Fairview International School Subang Jaya (FISJ) is an International Baccalaureate World School that is authorized to conduct the IB continuum from Primary Years Programme (PYP) to the Middle Years Programme (MYP). We are one of five Fairview campuses located all over Malaysia. In total FISJ houses 350 students representing both the national and international committees. Established in 2010, FISJ has established a good reputation for academic excellence. In FISJ our biggest assets are our students, as such we continuously seek to create learning opportunities for all. With the dedication of our very qualified teachers, we can offer inclusive IB programs that promote continuous learning both in and out of the classroom for all students. We do understand that students need more than academic skills to succeed. Therefore we adhere to our school vision of developing adaptable, lifelong learners, active citizens, effective contributors, resilient interviews, independent inquirers, and creative thinkers. With a range of facilities available, FISJ is a community school with a family foundation. All that we strive to achieve in FISJ is done with passion and with heart. We are proud of our results and have seen 100 students graduate since 2010. Many of them have since gone on to graduate from the Diploma program and obtained university places of their choice. 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. 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.

Fairview Johor (FISJ) an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School stands proud within a new purpose-built campus amid the bustling Tebrau area in Bandar Dato Onn. Easily accessible from Singapore and within minutes of the Senai International Airport, FISJ has attracted a fairly balanced diversity in the student population. Our main focus is to provide a rich academic curriculum and thus our advent into IB. Using the UK National Curriculum as our solid base and the IB curriculum framework to envelope it, we have devised a learning journey that matters to our digital-age students. Students no longer need to rely on one author’s perspective and memories textbooks to ace examinations. Students in Fairview are exposed to myriad approaches to learning, learn life skills rather than to score in examinations, share and collaborate in learning while at the same time take responsibility for their learning. Action and service form an integral component of the curriculum and the whole school community share in the learning experience. ‘An instrument a child’ – all students must learn a musical instrument as part of the curriculum. ‘Edu Resort’ –styled along the lines of an Outward Bound adventure, students experience a week in our very own beach resort in Port Dickson, Malaysia. Expeditions – Bi-Annual overseas expeditions for Middle school students build in the life skills of survival, camaraderie spirit, independence, taking calculated risks, caring, sharing, open-mindedness, and of course being reflective. Stress is placed on co-curricular activities and healthy competitions among other schools are encouraged. We offer a widespread range of uniformed groups, clubs, and games for all children ranging from the Primary Years to the Middle Years. We believe that the community must be part of the learning process of the students. Parents join in classroom learning experiences with students, partake in events and initiate activities that would be beneficial to the learning journey. Coffee mornings, carnival, National Days, traditional festivals, and other special days or events, like Pink Month, 30 hours fast for World Vision, and various other charitable activities are heavily patronized by our parent community. Our academic staff strength boasts of Ph.D. and Masters Holders in education and hail from several countries. All staff has to attend weekly professional development sessions apart from the mandatory workshops conducted by the IB Office. As the ONLY IB World School in Johor for the Primary Years and Middle Years Programme, I am proud to say that we have established a niche in IB education for the past 7 years not just for the 21st century and beyond but in general for a better world. Established in 1978, Fairview International School Johor Bahru (FISJB) is the premier international school in Malaysia that offers the whole suite of IB curriculum. Our highly qualified teachers, predominantly internationally trained and experienced teachers deliver quality education to students from pre-school to Year 12, culminating in the widely recognized IB Diploma. At FISJB, our students are encouraged to explore and discover in a learning environment that embraces individual abilities. 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.
