Founded in 2017, Kingsgate International School is set to become Malaysia’s premier international school. We will offer a Kindergarten through to Year 13 program based on an International British curriculum. We will take pride in becoming the first choice educational institution for students in the region. We are committed to a program that reflects both our school community's high expectations for academic rigor and a commitment to service leadership through deep connections to our global community. We are also deeply committed to our mission, which encourages all students to pursue excellence through “heart, minds and hands” on a global scale. We will be successful and we will foster peace, understanding, and international mindedness. Our state-of-the-art facilities celebrate deep connections to our community. Situated in Bukit Jalil we partner with the Bukit Jalil National Stadium, Putra Indoor Stadium, National Hockey Stadium, National Aquatic Centre, National Squash Centre as well as hosting our purpose-built facilities including a gymnasium, IT suites, design technology, media centers, science laboratories, music, and art rooms. We encourage our students to pursue a wide range of interests beyond the classroom. In partnership with the Kuala Lumpur and international community, we foster the development of each student’s potential by seeking a balance of academic, physical, social, emotional, and leadership pursuits. We believe that by offering our students a challenging British core curriculum with an international perspective, we will inspire a passion for learning and a lifelong commitment to critical and global thinking that will develop international leadership. We know that the most creative, logical, and powerful engine in the universe leads our minds. Our brains help us reach our potential when we understand how we learn and how to maximize learning potential. Critical, creative, and logical thinking doesn't happen by accident. Our understanding of neuroscience accelerates learning potential. We know that our hands and the tools we have around us help make the world a better place for ourselves and others. We manipulate our learning environment and “get things done” by knowing how to use our tools effectively. Whether it is sophisticated technology, a pencil, or our feet to play sport. We require skills to “do things” with what we “know”. At Kingsgate International School we believe in offering a unique opportunity for students to maximize their academic potential and achieve life goals. High-quality education opens doors but more importantly, it provides young people with the skills, confidence, and ability to forge new pathways. Success in a global world requires more than just high grades and academic achievement. It requires courage and determination as well as the understanding and the skills to be able to operate globally. Our school is committed to developing global leaders who will make a difference throughout the world in which they live. Our teachers are experienced and committed professionals who will work with all members of the education community to ensure success. We are building an education team that can best prepare students for the unique global world we live in. They will very quickly set a fine example in the region for their professionalism, knowledge, and skills for education and but also as leaders of reform and change. They know in their hearts that the product of their energy will be leaders of tomorrow across the Asia Pacific Region and the global world they live in. Our vision for Kingsgate International School is to see our students excel and pursue careers and pathways that make their families and community proud. We welcome you to Kingsgate International School. At Kingsgate International School we will deliver a rigorous curriculum that focuses on inquiry and critical thinking. We believe that students should be challenged as well as nurtured, guided but also developed as independent learners. Our pursuit of excellence begins with teachers who understand best practice and apply it in natural ways that maximize student performance. Our teachers continue to learn and research new methods and practices in curriculum alignment, assessment, and instruction. Our teachers work collaboratively to share their teaching strategies so that all students benefit from our collective expertise. We pursue 21st century standards, learning, and assessment. We develop students' minds, hearts, and bodies, knowing that students must know the information but more importantly they must be able to apply it and accomplish things with the skills and knowledge they develop.

We are a popular and successful primary and nursery school for boys and girls. We have a vibrant and diverse school community where mothers, fathers, and carers feel at home and take an active part in helping their children to learn and make progress. We expect all our children to make excellent academic progress and to leave us to go on to secondary school as confident and enthusiastic learners, ready for the next phase of their life. We have a lovely school which is kept in a beautiful condition to reflect the high standards that we set ourselves in all areas. Our school should give children a skill set that will maximize their positive life changes in the future. Our school should give children a particular set of values in the interests of individuals and wider society. These values should prepare our children for life in modern Britain. Our values: Excellence We believe that getting better never stops We have a culture that enables children and staff to excel We are proud of our school and our achievements Respect We treat everyone with respect We value all peoples and cultures equally We do not tolerate any form of bullying or prejudice Resilience We encourage teamwork and cooperation We communicate well with each other We praise each other and recognize and share our successes The vast majority of our children speak languages other than English at home. Many of our children start school with low skills in speaking and listening. Over half of our children come from families that are eligible for pupil premium funding. We know that many disadvantaged children start falling behind before they start school. For all these reasons, we have a focus on speaking and listening in the Early Years. We focus on reading, writing, and mathematics across the whole school. As a result, our pupils achieve very well at each key stage. We teach these fundamental skills in ways that will interest and inspire children. We emphasize the importance of these skills in other subjects. We make sure that children get engaging and challenging lessons in every subject. We make links between different subjects. We also aim to develop subject-specific skills. For example, in history lessons, we teach children to think like a historian. Children make and follow their lines of inquiry. Children enjoy a range of first-hand experiences. They go on many different trips. Visitors, workshops, and investigative approaches get them excited by the curriculum. For example, children visit a science laboratory and they make their shampoo. We also place a lot of importance on the arts. All children in Years 4 to 6 learn a musical instrument. All children get opportunities to perform in public. For example, children perform at the Royal Albert Hall with other Camden schools. The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment perform and hold workshops with children. Children also have the opportunity to be creative and learn a range of artistic skills. We prepare children for the opportunities, responsibilities, and experiences of later life. We particularly emphasize the importance of cooperation and teamwork. At Kingsgate Primary School we expect all pupils to make good progress and achieve their highest potential. We welcome all children in the community and we make every effort to ensure that special educational needs or a disability will not be a bar to joining in the normal day-to-day activities that other children experience. Sometimes children just need a bit more help and we are quick to spot when to give that help. Sometimes children have more complex needs and we work with a range of agencies to support their learning. Our teachers and teaching assistants are very skilled at helping all the children in their class learn, whatever their needs. Two learning mentors, an art therapist, and a senior educational psychologist also help children when they need more support. The children from Year 3 to Year 6 all have a responsibility such as buddying younger children or being mediators to help each other sort out any friendship issues. They learn to help each other and they learn important life skills at the same time. The school recently achieved the Camden Award for Inclusion which recognized our commitment to enabling all our pupils to achieve highly, whatever their needs.
