About this school
Pelita International School is a small international school on Jalan Cengai in Tanjung Bungah, Penang. It aims for a holistic education that builds on children's natural curiosity, mixing hands-on and kinaesthetic activities with practice drills and real-life scenarios, and emphasises character development.
The school's stages are:
- Early Years (from age 3) following the Early Years Foundation Stage framework
- Primary, Key Stages 1 and 2 (Years 1 to 6), ending with Cambridge Primary Checkpoint in English, Mathematics and Science
- Secondary, Key Stage 3 (Years 7 to 9) with Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint, and Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11) leading to Cambridge IGCSE
- Cambridge A Level examinations in Years 12 and 13
The curriculum includes humanities and Global Perspectives, Bahasa Malaysia and Mandarin, and personal, social and health education. Students train for the World Scholar's Cup and take part in sports, cooking and camps. New students with limited English can start with a term of English as a Second Language, and the school helps with student visa applications.
