Can a student earn a Japanese high-school diploma?

Attending only a Malaysian international school doesn't grant a Japanese high-school diploma. Students earn IGCSE / A-Level / IB instead, which qualify them for overseas and select Japanese universities (international tracks).

What boarding options exist?

Marlborough College Malaysia, Epsom College, and Alice Smith School are among schools offering boarding. Some also offer weekly boarding (weekends home) plans.
