Curriculum
The Wesleyan Curriculum is a unique learning programme that draws from the strongest points of the various syllabus from all over the world.
From the Cambridge IGCSE curriculum, our students develop global content knowledge and master essential skills to thrive in a fast-moving world. Students learn to apply knowledge, collaborate and problem solve in project-based learning events that encourage interdisciplinary learning.
Our Wesleyan curriculum also emphasises communication as a key skill to prepare our students. All students learn to be trilingual at Wesley where our language curriculum is drawn from our local KSSM syllabus for Bahasa Malaysia and the HSK/YCT Programme from China for Mandarin.
Our students progress from KS 1 to KS 4 through a sequenced progression of learning steps designed to help them explore literacy & numeracy, science & enquiry, creative arts & expression, the world & each person’s role in it and personal health & wellness.

Co-Curricular Activities
The Wesleyan co-curricular side of life complements and enhances the development of the enquiring mind. We believe that educational excellence should go beyond academic results and each student should be nurtured to his or her fullest potential.
During sports, students compete with each other to do their best and they train hard to push their potentials to the limit for their teams. Through these co-curricular activities, students learn to love, respect, and accept one another because they know that each individual is made in the image of God.
Our programmes in the Boys’ and Girls’ Brigades have been designed to promote character formation, servant-leadership and responsible citizenship. Wesleyans learn to serve and care for their peers while leading their teams through various challenges and obstacles. They learn to encourage one another and spur one another on with love and good deeds. As such, Wesleyans have a distinctive mark of excellence that shows the love for God, people and the environment.
