FAQ
- Q. How does IB differ from the British curriculum?
- A. IB is inquiry- and essay-driven; British (IGCSE / A-Level) is exam-based. Both are accepted for overseas-university entry — families choose based on the student's strengths and direction.
- Q. Is IB tuition higher than other curricula?
- A. Slightly. IB schools pay licensing fees, so tuition skews higher overall — around 80K–150K MYR/yr.
