| Qualities and characteristics best defining the school |
The school provides each child with the opportunity to excel both inside the classroom and outside as part of our school community, local community and further afield to international level. Whether it is Kangaroo Maths, Public Speaking competitions or Queens Commonwealth essay we encourage participation throughout the school. The House system allows each child to compete at different levels in a variety of different activities. We are part of a Global network and run student exchanges and international competitions for our students. The annual Beaconhouse Student Convention allows our students to represent Malaysia in both sports competitions and academic competitions, as well as enjoying the experience of different cultures and making new friends outside Malaysia. |
| Teaching approach of the school |
The classes are interactive and the students learn how to explore and investigate, acquire knowledge and how to use it. Confidence building and well-being are part of our everyday work. Students are given the opportunity to learn from each other through discussion and presentations. The older students experience a flipped classroom where independent study prior to a lesson is important. They are then equipped with the information to use in a variety of activities. We also use online resources to supplement and enhance the learning. |
