Cambridge Lower Secondary
In our intention to provide a better succession into IGCSE, Tree Top International School (TTIS) has adopted the Cambridge Lower Secondary curriculum. The curriculum overview is sourced from Cambridge Lower Secondary curriculum. Cambridge Lower Secondary helps prepare students for the next step of their education, providing a clear path as they progress through the Cambridge Pathway in an age-appropriate way. Besides adapting the Cambridge curriculum to suit our context, culture and ethos, TTIS has also included additional programmes such as Enterprise, Malaysian History and Eco Warriors to further equip our students with a broad range of knowledge on our immediate environment and transferable life skills.
