Are the teachers at Sri Aria School qualified?

Do you offer extra-curricular activities?

What is the syllabus at Sri Aria School? Is it KSSR?

As we explain in the "Our Approach" page, we are a Self Directed Learning school. We are not bound to any traditional curriculum however we integrate our Sri Aria SDL process with our adaptation of the KSSR syllabus. This isn't a school where kids sit in a classroom while a teacher stands in front and directs. Here, children learn through hands on activities, projects, discussions, and social play all initiated by themselves. The role of our Learning Facilitators is to guide, encourage, and –as their name implies– to faciliate the growth of each student according to our Sri Aria SDL Strengths Based model. We do not have any textbooks, tests, or exams of any kind at our school. Even though we don't provide examinations, we believe in allowing the student to choose for themself whether they want to take exams such as UPSR, PMR, SPM, or the IGCSEs.

Can my child join Sri Aria and still sit for exams externally?

If the child wholeheartedly decides for themself that they would like to sit for exams, arrangements can be made by parents and the student to register as a private candidate elsewhere for the intended exam. While we may not conduct the exams ourselves, we will do our best to support them with their planning and preparation. We remind parents and students to know before making such a decision that it is a big and significant one. The student must be prepared to self study, and may wish to enrol in external tuition sessions for further and possibly necessary support.

How can my child move on to secondary school without exam results?

After graduating from Sri Aria Elementary School, our students can enrol for Secondary School at most national and private schools as all they usually require now is a leaver's certificate which we can provide. This may not necessarily apply if you are aiming to send your child to an MRSM institution or boarding schools which require traditional UPSR results. In this case we would gently ask you to evaluate together with your child, is this goal something both you and your child themself share?

If students don't have exams, how are they assessed?

We employ the use of Authentic Assessment based on the SDL model on the "Our Approach" page. With a primary focus on building the Internal Strengths of the student, we observe and facilitate the progress of the student from being dependent to self-directed (dependent → interested → involved → self-directed) in areas related to their Internal and External strengths. Our aim is to support students in embodying the 5 Pillars of mindfulness, planfulness, sociability, playfulness, and curiosity.

Where have Sri Arians gone after graduating?

As of right now, our Bandar Sri Damansra campus is the only one with Sri Arians who have graduated from our elementary school. Of the pioneering batch, all have chosen to stay with Sri Aria and are currently piloting the Sri Aria Junior College programme (designed for students aged 13 to 17). Other students who have moved schools before graduating elementary school have moved to various Sekolah-sekolah Kebangsaan around their residential area.

What is Sri Aria Junior College? Who is it available to?

Sri Aria Junior College (SAJC) is the current pilot programme designed by Dr Putri as the continuity and next stage after Sri Aria Elementary School. As of currently, SAJC is only available to graduates of Sri Aria Elementary School who have gone through and exemplified the Self-Directed Learning process throughout their years at our school. Students who choose to remain with Sri Aria at the age of 13 years old will continue on to join the Sri Aria Junior College (meant for students from 13 to 18 years old).
