Market Analysis Summary:
The education industry in Malaysia is experiencing massive change. In line with the Government Economic Transformation Programme to make the country a regional education hub, Education ministry has lifted the quota for Malaysian in international school. The Education National Key Economic Area under the Economic Transformation Programme has targeted the establishment of at least 87 international schools by 2020 with an enrolment of 75,000 students. So far there are only 39,540 students enrolled in 70 international schools compared to 5 million in government school.

More and more Malaysians are enrolling in international schools due to the lack of faith in government schools. The draw of international schools is also its emphasis on English.

Education at international schools does not come cheap. Tuition fees for a high school student in a top-notch international school costs up to RM90,000 per annum while international curriculum schools charge only RM20,000 and RM30,000 for high school students per year. International curriculum schools are more affordable with bigger target market.
