About this school
Highlands International Boarding School (HIBS) is a co-educational secondary school at KM 10 Genting Highlands, in the Bentong district of Pahang. It was set up as a British IGCSE boarding school and sits in cool upland rainforest. Day students living within about 40 km attend alongside boarders; around 60% of students board and 40% are day pupils, with no distinction between them during the school day.
HIBS teaches the Cambridge curriculum from Year 7. Lower secondary leads into the two-year IGCSE course in Years 10 and 11, followed by the Cambridge International A Level programme (AS and A2). Students use their own devices in lessons. For Years 7 to 9 the school also runs HI-BLEND, a blended option with 17 days of online study and 3 days on campus for classes and activities.
