Charterhouse Malaysia – Education for a new reality
Our take on the Cambridge Future Ready IGCSE and A-Levels involves moving away from a traditional education model that focuses exclusively on academic intelligence and the accumulation of knowledge – to one which empowers the students and embraces the full depth of human intelligence be physically healthy and active, and be compassionate and caring towards others.
We refer to these five qualities – connect, notice, learn, move and give – as “Five for Life”, a cornerstone of Charterhouse Asia’s unique education programme. Our school culture and curriculum are designed to develop these core qualities in students. They will be “Future-ready”, having a confident take on the world’s complexity and opportunity.
