★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Obviously, I am not a Malaysian. So, I am looking at schools from (maybe a biased) European point of view. I have had the pleasure visiting this school a couple of times and the reception is kind, warm, welcoming and positive.
Do you know the feeling you can get when you enter a place and people half ignore you or that the people you talk to are not accessible? Well, that is not the case for this school. That first introduction is the first impression and that stays. The staff of this school did very well!
The school is a brand-new international school, it is in the heart of TTDI, all facilities are new, the school is spacious, light (but freezing!) and welcoming.
At the open days I visited, I had attention to how the children are. Sometimes I have the feeling that students are there because 'they have to', but in this case, the students were also there because they wanted to. They were friendly, helpful and giving everyone a proper tour around the school. I think this is important to mention as the students reflect and respond on how their relationship with the school (and especially the teachers) is.
The main point I highly value, is that Aspiration does not emphasize "straight As for all subjects for everyone all the time". Now you might think, isn't that the purpose of an IGCSE school? Isn't that what I am paying for? No, from my (European view) it is not the main essence of education.
Education is making progress in all aspects. All schools need to make sure that students are well equipped (in personal development and in academics) for them to function in society. It is utopia for any society to have only people from the best universities, with As all over. How can a society function without honesty, integrity, working together, solving problems, listening to each other, showing empathy and simply being kind? That is what schools are teaching too and that is super important as well. Academically, the most important of all is academic growth. We all start at 0. Then we learn and after many years some people will comprehend 8, some will comprehend 10, but some maybe only 6. However, the growth from 0 until the final result, if the student did everything they could together with the teachers, is worth celebrating.
I have the feeling that Aspiration does celebrate every success as every success is worth celebrating. I have learnt that teachers and students together do what they can to get the best out of every student. That is what matters most.
I am impressed, and if you are looking for a school for your child, please, do not skip Aspiration!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ AISS approaches education in a holistic way. Students are exposed to a myriad of subjects and extra curricular activities, not only focused on the academic but which also build character.
Teachers are genuinely passionate about teaching and turnover is low.
For the first time, my kids are actually chasing me to get them to school early and not the other way around.
After attending AISS for 2 months, my son in Year 7 confessed... "I've never liked going to school. But now I look forward to it. I can't believe it!"
So I asked him why. He said because the lessons are actually interesting! At XXXXXXXXXXX (previous school) I only looked forward to seeing my friends.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Proud to be a parent of this school that have provided me with a worry-free experience. I didn’t have to continuously monitor school progress and his development as a student. AISS have an open atmosphere where students can be themselves without fear and students and parents can develop new friendship and build a community. There are equal emphases on studies, sports, arts and character development for a holistic education with passionate and quality teachers to give the students the support required to excel.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Do not send your children here. They have no integrity or ethics, just dollar signs in their eyes, and the way I was treated was despicable and beyond belief.
I moved to Malaysia for the sole reason of sending my children to AISS and having an international experience, which turned out to be the worst experience in my life. I’ll highlight a couple of my bad experiences.
I was given an agent to assist with my visa. The Agent wasn’t great. After i informed the school of my experience is when the horrible treatment started. Harmiza who I was dealing with, did not acknowledge my concerns at all and then proceeded to treat me like a liar and a criminal. It was so bad that one day I was brought to tears on site at the school as she made everything so difficult, including taking my money for a personal bond, refusing to fill in the forms for me and then refusing to refund my money. There is more to the this story but it’s so wild you wouldn’t believe it unless I showed you messages and emails I received.
The second incident i will share is about my departure. I left Malaysia in a hurry as a family member was dying, I emailed Harmiza but she mustn’t have shared the info as the school months later accused me of only sending a WhatsApp message, Maybe this school likes to call people liars to distract themselves from their lack of integrity…,I don’t know. Anyway, they have refused to refund my security bond and have sent only one email, refusing to reply to further correspondence and engage in communication. They are thieves. They lied to me and made me feel confident to uproot my family just for my money. I lost so much money.
I must mention that Sylvi and Ms Thong are lovely though.
I was so excited to send my kids here and i based my decision off the reviews. Don’t make the same mistake. There is so much more to share so you can email me (my full name (one word) at gmail) and I’m happy to show you what you can expect if you go to this school,
