NUSAJAYA: Kota Iskandar here will have an international school to cater for the community’s needs.
The second Sunway International School (SIS) located in the Sunway Iskandar project, will be built at a cost of RM40mil and is expected to open by 2017. The first SIS is in Bandar Sunway in Selangor.
“With SIS Iskandar, we are confident that residents here will have the privilege of a world-class education which will help shape the holistic lifestyle of the community,” said Sunway’s property and construction for the southern region and Singapore executive director Tan Wee Bee.
Tan was speaking at a media briefing on the school project yesterday.
When completed, the school will offer the Canadian (Ontario) curriculum, which is rated as one of the world’s best school systems.
SIS is a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
The construction of the school’s five blocks, including a hostel unit for its students, will commence by the first quarter of next year.
Located on a 2.83ha site, the school fits in Sunway’s master plan to develop the area into a world-class city balanced with the beauty of nature.
Sunway education group senior executive director Dr Elizabeth Lee said the school would offer early education, primary, secondary and pre-university programmes.
The only other international school in Kota Iskandar now is Marlborough College
