Epsom College in Malaysia (“ECiM”), on a 50-acre site at Bandar Enstek, south of Kuala Lumpur, is an extension of Epsom College in the UK, which was founded in 1855 and has a long history of educating Malaysians and international students. ECiM follows the English National Curriculum with all subjects taught in English. There is a strong emphasis on languages, including Bahasa Malaysia, French, Mandarin and Spanish. The Senior School for pupils aged 11-18 is both a day and boarding school whilst the Prep School is for day pupils aged 3 – 11 years old. Students sit for IGCSEs and A Levels with the majority going on to study at prestigious UK universities.
ECiM combines academic excellence with a first class British boarding experience. 80% of the Senior School pupils are boarders. We create a family environment within a structured school routine, with a traditional British House system fostering a strong feeling of belonging and community.
Examination Results and University Applications
Epsom College in Malaysia is thrilled once again to report outstanding A Level results announced today. Building on the superb results achieved by our first Upper Sixth in 2016 this year’s students have achieved over 60% A*/A grades and over 86% A*/A/B grades. The pass rate was 100%. These are remarkable results for any school, but for a new school they represent a powerful affirmation of the quality of teachers and teaching, as well as the prowess, aspiration and endeavour of the students. One third of the year group achieved all A* or A grades. Almost all students have gained entry to their first choice Russell Group universities, including LSE, Imperial College, UCL, Durham, Edinburgh, Warwick and Exeter.
The Headmaster, Mr Martin George, has stated “we expected these students to achieve very strong results, but they have, once again, exceeded our targets. I pay tribute to them and their outstanding teachers for these wonderful results. As a College we are immensely proud of their achievements and wish them well in their next steps, which for most will be taking up a place at a prestigious UK Russell Group university.”
Prestigious Round Square Membership
As an international school the College realises the importance of nurturing global citizens. While the College follows the English National curriculum, pupils are encouraged to learn from local, regional and international contexts. As a global member of Round Square, one of the world’s leading international association of schools, Epsom is able to offer students opportunities to mix with, work with and learn from students from many countries through the many conferences and student exchange programmes.
Foundation for Success
At ECiM, we offer a true British boarding experience. Boarding and pastoral care are central to the life of the College and the Houses are the focal point of the pupils' lives at the College. The principal function of our House structure is to provide an efficient and well-tested means of providing outstanding pastoral care, which includes overseeing the academic development and personal welfare of the pupils.
Our experienced British trained Housemasters and Housemistresses have joined us from highly respected UK boarding schools such as Abingdon, Cheltenham, Durham and Millfield. Our boarding practice has been adopted from these schools and the environment, culture and ethos within the House community is very much an extension of a British boarding experience.
The teaching faculty at Epsom College is exceptional. The overwhelming majority of teachers are UK trained, and have experience in British Curriculum Schools in the UK and internationally.
Preparing Multilingual Learners for the Future
Attaining bi-lingual or multi-lingual status gives graduating students an advantage in today’s highly competitive world. As well as being intrinsically valuable. Mandarin is given prominence in the College as, alongside English, which is the medium of instruction, it is the most widely spoken language in the world.
ECiM was recently accredited as an Authorised HSK (Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi) Examination Centre and is the first British international school in Malaysia to offer the HSK Mandarin Programme. HSK is an international, standardised Mandarin proficiency qualification which measures the ability of non-native speakers, such as foreign and overseas Chinese students and is required for Chinese university and job applications.
Affordability
Our fees are competitive compared to other international schools in Malaysia and abroad. The facilities are on par with Epsom College in the UK and far surpass those found at most other boarding schools in the UK.
Generous Campus Space
ECiM campus is on a 50-acre site. With a generous amount of space available, pupils thrive in a modern and secure campus with unrivalled academic, co-curricular and boarding facilities.
