Sri Utama does not deserve to be referred as school so I shall refer it as a place. It's a place that sucks all your money for the most unnecessary reason but has no proper education, e.g:- any teacher of age and experience can teach any subject without proper qualifications, next the only "sports" that they focus on is football and basketball which again only is focused until school level but not any futher. To top that, other students do not have the opportunity to participate in class or out as teachers and the vice principal has favourites (specifically rich ones) As an ex student, I was cheated on as they charged my igcse's exam per paper but actually it's supposed to be charged per subject, which made me think what did they do with the balanced money? My parents paid so much but their education system is very poor. They give you limited subjects to take yet they produce zero grade A students.

Bad, bad management. The staff are so under motivated and uninspired. From discussion with parents, they mentioned the staff here are underpaid and their salary being purposedly held back for few months without any reason. So don't expect excellent education for your kids here.

Bad and Poorly managed school which I suspect is having financial difficulties. Some subjects even didn't have a teacher last year which was bad for my child who was facing a major exam. My child has since left 6 months ago but until now there's no sign of my security deposit! I deeply regret sending my child here. Steer away from this pathetic place lest you want to be ripped off.... My sympathies to the new principal hope he knows what he got into....good luck

The worst school ever. Such a bad management with low quality teachers. Each year parents need to wait for textbooks for months but expect parents all the payments ontime, such a ridiculous school....if you thinking to send you kid here, I urge you to strongly consider your child future.

One of the worst international schools you can find, canteen food is extremely bad, no disciplinary, Chinese students are very rude and has no punctuality. Management is lazy and very bad, class routines are changed regularly, students are not being prepared according to the IGCSE standards, not enough activities and students are not active in all activities. Students who are willing to learn are being left behind because of a few students who are disturbing the class and some indulged in groups doing restricted things.

SRI UTAMA SCHOOL | THE WORST PRIVATE SCHOOL IN MALAYSIA THERE IS. I enrolled my two children from Asia Pacific School as we had been relocated to Kuala Lumpur. After the impressive briefing by the school administrator telling how great the teachers are, how disciplined the students and enforcements are we wasted no time in signing the contracts and pay the tuition fees. Owh..there is a clause saying that the deposits are not refundable no matter what the circumstances are unless six months notice are given. Well, why should one change school right unless you have to relocate or the school is extremely bad? It does not take long to realize that the school is beyond bad. It is atrocious! The school is having a serious recruitment problem as people are getting more awareness, the number of classes is dwindling. Not enough students to enrol and students leaving resulting in the school having financial distress. The problem is compounded by the rising cost of good teachers. Good teachers are being pinched by other better-paying schools, thus resulting in the school employing the poor-quality teachers. I realized this during the meet the teacher session. The teacher had no feedback at all and was quiet. We asked a lot of questions and she just kept saying OK OK Ok while shaking the head. That left me dumbfounded. There is almost no homework. And the student’s tasks are often left unchecked. In short, the education quality at Sri Utama school is extremely bad beyond comprehension. At Sri Utama school, you can see the students’ discipline at its worst. I cannot blame the students as it is up to the school to enforce. Students can be seen with their Air Pod listening to music during school hours and I have seen with my eyes boys and girls holding hands. This early romance is done under the eyes of the teachers and nothing is done! The school maintenance is run down, lockers are not being used. The administration of the school is really bad with no communications at all. The traffic flow to send off and pick up the students is another issue. The drop-off and pick up lane is extremely narrow, to make things worse, the owners of the school put up their private car garage at the shoulder of this lane. This endangers student’s safety during peak traffic hours with students walking around. There is no innovation at all with the education system. IT is like an alien to the school. During the COVID 19 crisis, the school did almost nothing while other schools in Malaysia are mobilizing e-learning. Even the public schools are conducting e-learning. Sri Utama did not bother to do anything at all. No e-learning, no system, nothing at all. BUT when it is time to collect fees, they pretended to start e-learning to get the revenues. They started this, Microsoft meet e-learning finally after almost 2 months doing nothing. BUT they are clueless and ill-prepared! The study material given during this so-called e-learning is appalling. You can get 100 times better materials at free online sites. In summary, there is nothing good about this school. The school system is not sustainable. It is the worst private school in Malaysia. The Ministry of education should conduct a thorough audit of his school. I short, if you ever think about sending your children to Sri Utama school, please save your children. If your children are still in the school, pull them out and send them somewhere else. The schools spend most of their time doing damage control on the online reviews by counter reviewing with fake good reviews and deleting them from the internet. They even threaten to sue. But its ok, as long as I am telling the truth, I have to save other parents and children from suffering in the future as a consequence of poor education at Sri Utama School.

genuinely the worst school ever, my name is wong keng fong. a few teachers might know me. the school has terrible management, terrible teachers ( not all are bad ) and learning in the school has almost no benefits, exams are basically useless by checkpoint ( yr 6 ). i got pretty bad grades in science and maths because of the learning ( got 6 in english because of self-improvement ).

Primary is good but secondary is not good. Some subject teachers are not available for terms, yet not taking any actions by school management. Introducing new programs, charging fees, but not conducting lessons. Ex: Enrichment Program. If you keep your kids or trying to enroll your kids to secondary think twice. Even-though they showcase things they are not able to perform.

Apparently the good teachers have left the school already so that means there will be a new batch of teachers for 2019 so idk if theyre going to be good or not. The previous teachers have left bcs their salary wasnt paid in time and it was very low. Fees are pretty high as well. But the school is good if ur independent and u just need to study alot by urself EDIT: i'm currently studying here and it's safe to say that there's only 4 or 5 good teachers left and the teachers that are being hired aren't up to the standard. fees are overly priced and overall not worth it. the friends i've made are spectacular though.
