Brighton International School Kuala Lumpur
British-curriculum school in Kuala Lumpur, founded 2018, running Cambridge IGCSEs and A Levels for around 350 pupils aged 4–18.
In brief
Brighton International School opened in Kuala Lumpur in 2018 and teaches around 350 pupils aged 4–18 along a British pathway, with Cambridge IGCSE and A Level in the upper years and accreditation from the Council of International Schools. Annual fees run from MYR 11,100 to 23,400, and price is the theme parents return to most: reviews repeatedly call the fees low for Kuala Lumpur relative to other British-curriculum schools, without an obvious drop in quality.
The wider parent feedback is consistently positive. Reviews describe attentive teachers, small classes and staff who know the children well, and parents praise the small-school feel alongside the Cambridge programme. The admissions team draws particular warmth, described as fast and hands-on, with individual administrators singled out by name for steering newly arrived families through visa and registration paperwork.
