Marlborough College Malaysia provides a holistic British boarding school experience just an hour away from Singapore.

A School You Can Call Home

The United Kingdom (UK) is known for its boarding schools, steeped in tradition and providing first-rate education for British elite over the decades. One such institution is Marlborough College, a 175-year-old school originally founded for the sons of Church of England clergy, and also one of the first British independent schools to introduce a coeducational system, which has allowed it to groom many remarkable women, including the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton.

Perhaps enrolling your children in a British independent school isn’t just a matter of producing outstanding academic results. In fact, a big part of the boarding experience is developing EQ and instilling a sense of independence.
