Being the first La Salle associate Private School in Malaysia, SJIS with its excellent scholastic tradition that dates back to 1904 (beginning with St. John's Institution, Kuala Lumpur), prides itself with its outstanding academic record as part of a well-rounded, holistic education that encompasses education, sports and educational activities.

 

In 2019, students of the school achieved 97% and 100% pass rates at A-Level and IGCSE respectively; with an average score of 5.0 for Science and 5.5 for Mathematics in the Checkpoint examinations.

 

SJIS has awarded over half a million ringgit in academic scholarship value to high-achieving students for excellent performance in SPM or IGCSE exams, and will continue to provide scholarships when their doors open again.

 

There is no fixed allocation per annum; scholarships are determined purely on merit and are available until the intake is full. Students who achieve 8As and above for their SPM are eligible for 100% off fees; 7As, 80%; 6As, 70%; and 5As, 60%.


SJIS rewards excellence in athletics as well as academics. The school awards Sports Scholarships to any student who plays and competes at National Level as long as the student maintains their level of representation each year.

 

Merit-based scholarships are also available for UPSR students and students who achieve 6As are eligible for a 50% scholarship (5As, 40%; 4As, 20%). SJIS has awarded more than RM150,000 in terms of IGCSE scholarship to UPSR students to date.
