How would you rate Mont'Kiara International School (MKIS)?
Very high turnover of staff and lacks in academics. A lot of complaints in Middle School about the students receiving high marks, however the academic standard is not very high. Glassdoor and others seem to be receiving a lot of lower reviews in the last couple of years.
On the surface, MKIS looks to be a good school. However, many students in middle school say they learned very little. There is a high turnover where few teachers stay beyond 2 years.

Malaysia's premier American curriculum international school. Fully equipped school with dedicated staff and teachers. A true Tier-1 school by international standards, and one of Malaysia's prestigious schools alongside GIS, which offers the British curriculum.

Mont' Kiara International School is a relatively small, but very good school. The teachers at this school are almost always open to giving extra help whenever they can. It is a very challenging school for many students, but it is challenging in a good way. This is because students are faced with the ESLRs or expected school wide learning results that encourage them to go beyond their limitations. The curriculum is also designed to make the students excellent global citizens.
