Qosmo International School Kuala Lumpur
British-curriculum school in Petaling Jaya, founded 2019, running Cambridge IGCSEs and A Levels for ages 3–18.
In brief
Qosmo International School is a small Cambridge-curriculum school in Petaling Jaya, founded in 2019, taking pupils aged 3–18 along a British pathway through to A Level. It is registered with Malaysia's schools inspectorate, the JNJK, and is led by Brendan Lanza, who has over 20 years in education, including a decade in Malaysia. Annual fees run from MYR 21,480 at preschool level to MYR 40,254 in the A Level years, notably below the Kuala Lumpur international-school average.
Small classes, averaging around 15 pupils, and a multinational teaching staff are the features parents most often name as the school's draw. Parent feedback is consistently positive, and one graduate credited teachers with helping them improve their English and achieve all A* grades in lower secondary Cambridge exams.

Reviews
- A small Cambridge-curriculum school in Petaling Jaya, founded 2019, on the cheaper end of KL's international-school fee band (RM21k-RM37k).
- Public reviews are sparse and uniformly positive; iSchoolAdvisor is small across five reviews.
- One graduate said teachers "helped them improve their English and achieve all A* grades in lower secondary."
- Parents repeatedly flag small classes (around 15) and a multinational teacher body as the school's draw.
- Reddit, Mumsnet and Malaysian community discussions returned no signal, so the picture is from directory reviews and Glassdoor only.
Positives
- Affordability. Fees are notably below KL international-school market average.
- Small classes. Average 15 students per class, multinational teaching staff.
- Academic outcomes. A graduate cites strong A* outcomes in lower secondary Cambridge exams.
Considerations
- Thin signal. Few reviews; school only opened in 2019 and has limited public footprint.
