Taylor's International School Puchong (TISPC) is one of two campuses of Taylor's International Schools (TIS) in Malaysia. TIS is part of Taylor's Schools (TS, ), one of the largest private K-12 schools' groups in Malaysia, currently with five schools in Malaysia and one in Singapore. TS has been educating children for over 20 years and continues to nurture new generations of students today. Each of our schools offers its own unique approach to learning and are connected by a common purpose, which is to educate the youth of the world to take their productive place as leaders in the global community. It is our goal to nurture individuals who are not only academically sound, but also globally aware, and are cultivated to be:

2. Responsible - to have a great sense of responsibility to take care of themselves, their community, and the world in which we live in;
3. Resilient - to remain mentally and emotionally healthy amidst adversities, to be able to learn from their mistakes and have the strength to bounce back when it matters most. TISPC offers a global learning experience through the English National Curriculum using the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) and IGCSE. TIS has been accredited as the first Quantum Learning Distinguished School in the world by the Quantum Learning Network, one of the most effective teacher development programmes from the United States of America. Quantum Learning provides strategies for the teaching staff (the majority of whom are Malaysian) to have the greatest impact on student learning and understanding, and has been hugely successful since its implementation. The TIS brand has a clear ethos, and structure, by which all schools will deliver holistic education. These schools are termed neighbourhood international curriculum schools, as they offer the "best of east and west" - western curriculum with eastern values, by offering an international education with character building to all students.
