For a better understanding and view of the school, we recommend that you arrange for a visit to the school to meet with the Admissions Team and allow us to show you around our school. If you are unable to visit the school personally, we can attend to your enquiries either by email or phone.
We would however highly recommend for you to make an appointment for a formal tour around the schoo campusl at your earliest convenience after your arrival in Kuala Lumpur, even if this is after your child has started at the school.
The Admissions contact personnel at the Alice Smith School are Vanitha Iswaran at the Primary Campus at Jalan Bellamy and Agnes Chang at the Secondary Campus at Equine Park. Both Vanitha and Agnes will be your respective points of contact at the different campuses and they will guide you through the Admission procedure.
You will be shown around the school and this tour should include information on:
The formal admission procedures
All payments due, stating refund and notice requirements
Ministry requirements for Malaysian citizens
Whether or not there is a waiting list at your child's level (we generally place children in the correct chronological year group according to the English system)
We will expect to answer your queries on these or other matters and clear guidance is given in the documentation. You will be introduced to the site Principal, or in their absence another member of Senior Management, though this may not always be possible on your initial visit.
Where there is a waiting list it is important to note that Vanitha or Agnes can indicate to you when a place may become available but this information is advisory only and may change according to circumstances. It must be clearly understood that such advice does not constitute a formal offer. Only Senior Management have the authority to make a formal offer of a place and this will be done in writing.
Should you decide to apply formally for admission to Alice Smith School on behalf of your child/children, we will require:
A completed Application for Enrolment Form
A completed Applicant's Profile with a copy of the latest school report
A copy of the child's birth certificate
2 copies of a recent passport size photograph of the applicant
A photocopy of the passport (particulars page) of the father, mother and child/children
An application fee of RM1,000.00 for each child and a parent membership fee of RM20.00, per family, either in cash or cheque, made out to "The Alice Smith Schools Association"
We shall provide you with a school brochure and should you wish, answer your more detailed questions on such matters as school uniform, transport, school routines, extra curricular activities and lunch arrangements. If at this stage you have a need to discuss the particulars of your application further with the Principal or Vice Principal, we will be pleased to make an appointment for you.
Following application as above, your child will be placed on the waiting list and this will be confirmed to you in writing.
We will acknowledge your application as soon as we receive it, and will then contact you when a place becomes available. If you would like more information during the waiting period please contact our Admissions Officer.
A formal offer of a place will be made in writing for your child/children immediately should a place be available or alternatively when a place becomes available if there is a waiting list at your child's year level. Our waiting list is made up of four categories which will be explained to you should you decide to take your application further.
Admission is subject to:
The ability to speak, write and read English - as appropriate to the child's age and this will be assessed.
Payment of the non-refundable enrollment fee, non-refundable Building Fund contribution and the refundable unsecured interest free member's loan.
Approval from the Ministry where a child is a Malaysian citizen who is eligible for entry into Malaysian schools.
Please note that we assess in order to ascertain whether a child has a learning problem, and to see his or her level of achievement relative to our current students. The level of attainment at Alice Smith is high and we need to be sure that your child will cope and settle happily with us. We have support staff who offer additional help where there are gaps to fill or, for younger children where additional reading or maths support is required. It is important to note that we do not have a specialist unit to deal with more serious learning difficulties and if your child has such needs, this could result in the withdrawal of the offer of a place.
Your acceptance of the offer should be made prior to your child starting school. The payment of the required enrolment fee, building fund contribution, interest free member's loan and a recent copy of your child/children's report constitutes your acceptance of a place.
At this stage you will receive the following:
General information handout covering arrival and dismissal, general school routines, transport, uniform and food arrangements
A curriculum booklet relevant to your child's year
School calendar
If you have any further queries or concerns that have not been adequately addressed, please do not hesitate to draw them to our attention (please fill out our online enquiry form). We look forward to seeing you at the Alice Smith school, and to welcoming your family to our community.
