School History

We established in the year 2000

New Bridge International School has a rich and dynamic history that traces its roots back to a humble tutoring center in Skudai, Johor, established in the year 2000. Initially founded with a vision to provide supplemental education support to students in the local community, the center soon evolved into Apple Language Centre in 2011.

Under the leadership of visionary educators and driven by a commitment to excellence, Apple Language Centre expanded its offerings to include preparation courses for Cambridge English Qualifications. Recognizing the growing demand for high-quality English language education, the center underwent a rebranding in 2015, becoming known as Malayan English Academy.

The journey of growth and innovation continued in 2013 when Malayan English Academy was awarded the prestigious status of a Cambridge English Qualification Authorized Center. This milestone marked a significant achievement for the institution, solidifying its reputation as a trusted provider of Cambridge English examinations in southern Malaysia.

In response to evolving educational needs and trends, Malayan English Academy took a bold step forward in 2021 by launching Newbridge Homeschool. This innovative initiative aimed to provide personalized and flexible learning experiences tailored to meet the diverse needs of students.

Building upon the success of Newbridge Homeschool, the institution embarked on a transformative journey, culminating in the establishment of New Bridge International School. Recognizing the growing demand for international education options, the institution made the strategic decision to transition from a homeschool model to a full-fledged international school.

Today, New Bridge International School stands as a beacon of educational excellence, providing a comprehensive and holistic learning experience that prepares students to excel in a globally connected world. With a strong foundation built on decades of experience and a commitment to innovation, New Bridge International School continues to inspire and empower the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and changemakers.
