encompassing self-discipline, integrity and empathy into the hearts and minds of the children throughout their time here. Education does not only take place in the classroom but on the sports pitch, while performing on stage or exploring in the field, and so all students are encouraged to take risks, develop existing interests or try new ones.

A child’s time at school must be a period of growth for each individual to explore their mind’s full potential. As the children develop, they have the chance to become an elder of the School, to mentor younger children, to put something back into the community – to learn to lead. Tenby Schools Penang brings children together from many backgrounds to learn and grow together. We aim to see all our students develop the confidence to take their rightful place amongst the best and the brightest, able to work at any level in any part of the world.

An education at Tenby Schools Penang starts with your child being able to say: “I didn’t realise I could do that until now!” If you would like to find out more, please come and take a tour, meet the staff and children, and see the outstanding facilities we enjoy.

CURRICULUM primary school

The new Malaysian Primary School Curriculum is called Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (KSSR). This curriculum started in the year 2011. The KSSR curriculum was introduced as an effort to restructure and improve the current curriculum to ensure that students have the relevant knowledge, skills and values to face the challenges of the 21st century.

What is meant by a Standard Curriculum?

KSSR was formulated based on a statement of standards. The statement of standards is comprised of content standards and learning standards which need to be achieved by a student in a specific period and level of schooling. The Content and Learning standards are defined as follows:

• Contents Standards are specific statements on what the students must know and can do, within a specific period of schooling, covering the areas of knowledge, skills and values.

• Learning Standards are set criteria or indicators of education quality and achievements which can be measured for each content standard.

22 Sekolah Sri Tenby Prospectus

Tenby Schools is fortunate enough to work with an active Parents Association (PA), whose committee liaises between the school, parents and community associations to create a strong school spirit by organising events and activities for students, parents and staff.

The PA is key when transitioning into the school as it gives parents the opportunity to socialise, stay connected and make friends by hosting coffee mornings. It consists of parent volunteers and maintains a strong community that is inclusive of both the international and national schools.

It relies on the creativity and energy of volunteers to organise events such as:

• Welcome coffee mornings• Parent seminars• The annual Spring and Summer Fairs • Organising food for major school events

It is a warm and welcoming community that we hope you will be a part of too.
