Schoozy Intelligence

Our own read of this school, drawn from public sources and kept separate from the school's own material.

An English-medium Cambridge school in Selangor pairing a British curriculum through IGCSE with a dedicated English-support pathway and optional boarding at Shah Alam.

MAZ International School is a two-campus (Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam) private day school in Selangor, Malaysia, teaching an English-medium British curriculum aligned to Cambridge International from early years through Year 11/Form 5 on its current fee schedule, with small classes capped at 25 and a stated 15:1 ratio. It runs a two-term Special English/EAL programme for non-native speakers and offers optional boarding at Shah Alam (RM18,000/year, food excluded); annual tuition runs from about RM12,750 to RM33,000 for 2026–27. The canonical record lists ages 3–18 and A-Levels, but the current published fee table stops at Year 11, so a post-IGCSE pathway should be confirmed directly.

An editorial summary of the sections below — not a rating or ranking.

Best for
Families seeking an English-medium Cambridge primary and lower-secondary/IGCSE education in the Petaling Jaya–Shah Alam area, including those whose child needs a structured English-support (EAL) route before or alongside mainstream classes, and families who want or need a boarding option at Shah Alam.
Things to consider
Confirm directly whether a post-Year-11 / A-Level pathway is currently operating, since the published fee table ends at Year 11/Form 5. Clarify whether the Special English/EAL fees replace or are added to mainstream tuition, and confirm boarding arrangements, enrolment and campus-by-campus year groups. There is no independent ranking, inspection grade or published outcomes data, so reputation and results cannot be verified from outside the school.

Learning environment

How lessons run
Mostly taught content
TaughtInquiry
The timetable follows the Cambridge IGCSE syllabus with project work such as coding competitions embedded inside individual subjects rather than running as separate inquiry blocks.
Academic load
Demanding
LighterHeavier
Students sit examination periods in every term plus a dedicated Year 11 mock-examination window, but no published requirement for daily prep or full diploma-style core components exists.
How students are assessed
Mostly examinations
ExaminationsProjects
Grading is anchored by termly examinations and a formal mock-exam period, with subject coursework such as CS projects and a timed practical assessment running alongside but not published as the majority weight.

A wider bar means the published evidence narrows the position to a range rather than a point.

The full read on each topic, with the sources behind it. Open only what you need.

No independent reputation evidence located

No ranking, inspection grade, press profile, or accreditation listing establishing MAZ's standing was found; only the school's own description of itself is available.

Read analysis

What the evidence shows

A search of public sources did not locate any independent ranking, inspection grade, major press profile, or authoritative accreditation listing for MAZ International School. The only available material is the school's own website, which describes the school in positive terms.

A school describing itself is not independent evidence about its reputation. On the evidence available, no independent claim about MAZ's institutional standing can be made in either direction.

Application, interview and testing day, with placement at the school's discretion

The school's published process requires an application, a personal interview and testing day, and a school-day experience, with placement at its discretion; independent detail on assessments, thresholds and acceptance rates could not be verified.

Read analysis

The published process

According to the school's own admissions page, admission and placement are explicitly at MAZ's discretion. The published process requires an application, a personal interview and testing day, and a school-day experience.

The school states that placement considers age, academic ability and developmental needs.

What could not be verified

This picture is incomplete. No independent evidence was located confirming the specific entry assessment used, any language threshold, who conducts the interview or in what language, waiting-list status, priority rules, year-group availability, mid-year admissions constraints, or acceptance rate. Searches covered government private-school register guidance, public directory listings, accreditation and inspection body searches, and Education Malaysia listings.

A January 2024 directory entry naming CAT4, English writing and an interview gave no attributable underlying source, so it is not treated as confirmation. Families should verify assessment and entry requirements directly with the school.

Full boarding and day school; international and Malaysian intake per school account

The school says its history spans children from more than 35 countries and now includes Malaysian as well as expatriate children; a government-linked profile lists the Shah Alam campus as full boarding and day, with no ratio or enrolment count published.

Read analysis

What the school states

MAZ states that its history includes educating children from more than 35 countries. Its principal's message refers to educating expatriate children and, more recently, Malaysian children. This comes from the school's own material rather than independent verification.

Education Malaysia's public profile describes the Shah Alam campus as a full boarding and day school. It does not publish a boarding-to-day ratio or an enrolment count.

No outcomes or destination data available

No university destinations, cohort size, offer or matriculation statistics, or examination-results table for 2024–2026 were found in the school's current materials or third-party sources.

Read analysis

What is missing

No named university destinations, graduate cohort size, university offer, acceptance or matriculation statistics, or exact examination-results table for 2024–2026 was found in MAZ's current official public materials or in the searched third-party sources.

Because of this, no claim about student outcomes or alumni destinations can be made. Families who want outcome data should request it directly from the school.

A few public reviews praise teacher support

A small number of public parent reviews across two platforms describe teachers and staff positively; the volume is too low to generalise.

Read analysis

What reviewers mention

Several public parent reviews across two review platforms (edarabia.com and trustburn.com) positively describe teachers or staff as attentive, committed, or helpful. One of these carries a date of August 2024; the others are undated.

This is a very small number of reviews on low-tier review platforms, drawn largely from a single theme. It should be read as a limited signal, not as a representative or verified picture of parent and student experience.

2026–2027 calendar and fees published

The school's currently published academic calendar and fee structure runs May 2026 to April 2027, with tuition from RM12,750 to RM33,000 and an optional boarding fee.

Read analysis

Current fees and calendar

The school's currently published academic calendar and fee structure is for May 2026 to April 2027. The Shah Alam fee table lists annual tuition from RM12,750 for KG 1 to RM33,000 for Year 11 / Form 5.

An optional annual boarding fee of RM18,000 is listed, excluding food. This information comes from the school's own admissions page.

Confirm post-Year-11 pathway and how EAL fees work

The current fee table ends at Year 11 / Form 5, so families needing a later pathway should confirm provision directly, and should clarify how the Special English/EAL programme charges relate to mainstream tuition.

Read analysis

Post-Year-11 pathway

The current official fee table ends at Year 11 / Form 5, even though older third-party directory material references A Levels. Families needing a post-Year-11 pathway should confirm directly with the school whether such provision currently exists.

English support and its fees

The school offers a two-term Special English/EAL programme for non-native speakers with limited English proficiency, including Junior and Senior versions.

The page does not specify whether the published Special English/EAL figures replace mainstream tuition or are additional charges. Families should clarify this relationship directly before committing.
