OUR STORY

Cultivates Excellence With Purpose

The Minds and Hearts That Bring Learning to Life

The challenges ahead demand more than academic credentials. They call for young people who think critically, lead with empathy and act with purpose. IDRISSI School Bukit Jelutong is designed with that future in mind, bringing together eco-awareness and Islamic values within an internationally recognised curriculum. From the first days of preschool to the final years of secondary school, every child is met with intention and care, by educators who believe that how a child is taught matters just as much as what they are taught.

PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

“Together, we strive to raise a generation who are confident, compassionate, and conscious of their Creator and the world they live in.”

Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,

Every child who walks through our gates carries something special within them. A light, a curiosity, a story waiting to unfold. My greatest joy as an educator has always been to see that light grow brighter each day, and to know that our school is a place where children feel safe, inspired, and truly themselves.

Education at IDRISSI is about nurturing hearts as much as minds, and guiding our students to understand that every gift they have is an amanah, a trust from Allah to be used with kindness, purpose, and humility.

Our eco-Islamic approach reminds us to live with balance and gratitude. We learn from nature, care for it, and see it as a reflection of Allah’s mercy. Whether our students are tending to the garden, exploring science outdoors, or reflecting under a shady tree, we want them to experience that learning is all around us.

What makes our community so special is the way we care for one another. Our teachers teach with heart, our students learn with enthusiasm, and our families walk alongside us in partnership and trust. 

May Allah bless our school with continuous growth, sincerity, and success, for His sake and for the future of our children.

“Be the Change”

Value Education Programme (VEP)

Imagine a world where the young generation is not only academically brilliant but also emotionally intelligent, practising virtuous traits such as kindness, compassion, respect and empathy. Value Education Programme, or known as VEP is a character-building programme that emphasises on social-emotional learning skills, where students learn to create meaningful connections with everyone around them. Good values are instilled in a variety of activities for the students to be involved in such as the Cookout to share recipes among friends, Charity Bake Sale to raise funds for the needy, visits to Charity Homes and many more.

STEM Robotics

IDRISSI International School is the first international school in Malaysia to implement STEM with Robotics Curriculum. The curriculum is accredited and certified by Global STEM Alliance (GSA) and International Technology and Engineering Educators Association (ITEEA). Through hands-on and creative learning, students explore engineering concepts, design, coding, and problem-solving using STEM-friendly robots. Rather than learning in theory alone, students are challenged to develop robots that solve real, everyday problems which helps foster their interest in subjects like Mathematics, Coding, Engineering, Science and Technology, all of which lead to innovation.

Junior Award Scheme for Schools (JASS)

The JASS Programme is an internationally recognised, accredited progressive learning programme offered to students aged 10–14, designed to develop well-rounded character and a sense of purpose beyond the classroom. It gives our students an edge over the rest in their education portfolio. Fully aligned with current educational thinking and IDRISSI’s outdoor learning strategy, the programme recognises growth across four key areas:

FLiP (Year 3 to Year 6)

FLiP is IDRISSI’s Financial Literacy Programme, developed in partnership with MoneyTree Asia Pacific, one of the region’s leading financial education providers. Unlike most Malaysian schools that offer financial literacy as an elective, we teach it as a core part of our curriculum. Our teachers are trained and certified by MoneyTree, equipping students with real money skills, which include budgeting, saving, understanding debt, investing and the importance of giving. We believe that a child who understands money grows into an adult who is responsible, generous, and financially free.

Eco Scouts and Eco Programme

Learning at IDRISSI goes far beyond the classroom. Our students explore the wider world and apply their knowledge through hands-on experiences in our outdoor learning spaces. Eco Programme is a dedicated subject within our curriculum, while Eco Scouts runs every Friday for Year 1 to Year 3, where students take part in activities like making self-watering planters, rainwater harvesting, patch farming, recycling and more. Through these experiences, they discover firsthand how even the smallest actions can make a big impact on the environment.

Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award (DofE)

As the continuity of the JASS programme, students will participate in The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE), an international leading achievement award programme for students aged 14 and above. The programme is fully aligned with current educational thinking and IDRISSI’s outdoor learning strategy. It is internationally recognised and will give our students an edge over the rest in their education portfolio.

Archery

Another customised subject we include in our curriculum is Skill and Fill, where students learn traditional Turkish Archery from trainers certified by the Yunus Emre Institute (world-wide non-profit organisation by the Turkish government) and the Okçular Vakfi (Archers’ Foundation of Turkey). The traditional sport is being taught together with its underlying historical, athletic, artistic, cultural and educational values. Being focused, confident and having a good sense of coordination are some of the positive values students can benefit from the programme.
