UCSI International School Kuala Lumpur is proud to announce our membership with the Australian Boarding Schools Association (ABSA) as of 2025. This affiliation reflects the calibre of our unwavering commitment to excellence. 

Being a member means being aligned with globally respected standards and the best practices in Australia and internationally—ABSA is widely regarded as being amongst the most rigorous and progressive globally.

We benefit from ABSA’s certification programmes and training frameworks. Through ABSA, our team is equipped with the knowledge and tools to deliver high standards of care and supervision.

The holistic development of every learner is at the heart of our mission. Our boarding programme plays a vital role in fostering the UCSI’s Eight Critical Characteristics of lifelong learning, character education, global citizenship, innovative and creative skills, technology skills, interpersonal skills, personalised learning and collaborative learning in all our students.

Our boarding experience actively promotes the development of UCSI’s Five Critical Skills, too—character, creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration—through daily routines, shared responsibilities and meaningful relationships with both peers and staff.

These essential competencies are developed through intentional pastoral care, academic support and structured independence. Our students are empowered to become confident, capable and compassionate global citizens.

At UCSI International School KL, we believe that the foundation for all meaningful learning is a culture of care. Our partnership with ABSA reinforces our dedication to creating a boarding environment where students are not only safe and supported, but also inspired to reach their full potential—intellectually, emotionally and socially.

In the safe, inclusive and coordinated environment of our boarding house, students are given the opportunity to grow beyond the classroom—learning to lead, to listen, to empathise and to thrive within a diverse and international community.
