From Sjkc To International Schools
One of the most frequently asked questions in our FB group is "What's next after SJKC?" Where do we go from here? Below are the several options available:
SMK (Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan) or Public National secondary schoolSMJK (Sekolah Menengah Jenis Kebangsaan) or National-type secondary schoolCIS (Chinese Independent Schools)Private Schools (ie Private Schools with National syllabus, preparing to sit for SPM)International School (ie Private International schools that prepare you for international examinations like the IGCSE)Many parents opt for SJKC (Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina) during the first 5 to 6 years of their child's educational journey because they want their children to learn Mandarin in an immersive environment. After the primary school years, some parents switch to international schools so that their children can experience a different educational approach that make learning joyful, meaningful and challenging
Transitioning from SJKC to International Schools
While primary school may be the time to build foundation and attitude, secondary school is a good time to build character and confidence. International schools are a good pathway for parents who want their children to have a holistic education that goes beyond academics.
However, parents have many misconceptions about international schools. Below we have compared some of the myths with facts about Taylor's International School (TIS).
Myth 1: The best International schools are very expensive.- TIS is affordable and offers quality education with world-class facilities and teaching. They also offer support through bursaries and scholarships
Myth 2: International school students can be spoilt, and rooted too much in western culture.
- TIS is grounded in Eastern as well as Western values, being deeply rooted in Asian culture while emphasizing character building and critical thinking
Myth 3: A good international school must consist predominantly of expatriate teachers.
- TIS has a blend of expatriate and local teachers who are committed to a culture of continuous quality improvement.
Myth 4: Students can only join an international school at the beginning of the academic year.
- Most international schools in Malaysia begin in September. The academic year in TIS starts in January, however many families also join during Term 2 and Term 3 intakes
Myth 5: It’s very difficult moving from one curriculum to another, and best not to change.
- In TIS, familiarization programmes are conducted for new students to help with the transition
