On top of reasonable fees, many parents are looking for a sound education at fixed fees because they want predictability.

So, the parents can send their children for a private international secondary education with peace of mind and security.

Not everyone is equally good at all subjects. Therefore, we implemented a ‘mentoring system’ in which peer-to-peer learning takes place at designated times. When problems still persists, the teachers are always there to assist in the child’s learning.
At AIS we have an open and inclusive culture where we try to take care of each other. We value how we represent the school in our uniforms, in our general behaviour and our behaviour online. The atmosphere is open and welcoming where problems can be talked about and solved.
This is the time to learn how to build, and maintain, good friendships for life! We encourage building friendships and guide the learners where needed.
AIS isn’t just a school where there is a big distance between the teachers and the learners. We are, teachers are very approachable and it is not uncommon to see the teachers mingling with the students. In AIS, we strive towards a healthy relationship between the school management, teachers, parents and students. We learn from our mistakes and celebrate our successes. In that sense we are the AIS family!
At AIS we recognize that not everyone is the same. We all come from different backgrounds and face different challenges both academically and personally. We encourage individual attention to ensure that any difficulties can be overcome to let the learners get the maximum out of their education.
AIS believes that the learner is responsible for their own learning. We encourage the learners to actively take part in the lessons and to take leadership in their own learning. The teachers does all s/he can to make learning possible.

Being a daily affair, it is important to many parents for their children’s school-travelling-time to be reduced. The MRT station is less than 1km away which makes AIS easily accessibly from anywhere in the Klang Valley. Being touted as one of the best places to live in the Klang Valley, TTDI’s strategic location is almost second to none. There are amazing amenities around the school to occupy the parents while they wait for their children. This means that instead of sitting and waiting in the car, parents can get food, coffee, banking, groceries and even haircuts done within walking distance. Students also stop at Family Mart and MacDonald’s before or after school to grab their favourite snacks.

Money always is a sensitive topic. Earning money is exciting, however, how do you get the most out of your hard-earned money and that you can overcome financial obstacles? To answer these questions we are partnering with MoneyTree’s financial literacy program to teach the learners exactly that, in the most exciting way possible!
AIS is not an island in an ocean where life is nothing else but perfect. AIS is a part of the local community and we take pride in giving our resources to give a helping hand to the ones who need it. We actively take part in food distribution for the disadvantaged, we clean up parks, we contribute at schools who need an extra hand, and the list can go on.
When it comes to cleaning up, ‘The rubbish might not be mine, but this is my school/community/country, so let’s take good care of it’!
Who can’t agree with that?
What is a school without a healthy relationship with the parents? AIS invites all parents to be part of the family. There are several events, such as a parents-teachers coffee table. There, on a monthly basis, the school and parents sit together and talk about ongoing events and contributions.
That results in a put lock, organised by the parents, at the latest Sports Day, parents’ involvement in our community service and termly meetings with the teachers to discuss the progress of the children.
Performing Arts plays a significant part of AIS life as well. There are several performances throughout the year. One of them is the performance during the sports day, in which the houses organise their own performance. That can be a play, a dance or even both!
This can be considered as a ‘warming-up’ for the Year’s End performance at the graduation day where the whole school is involved in creating the biggest show ever!
Creating performances teaches the learners how to cooperate, work together as a unity, it bonds the learners together and they feel pride on their results!
