Hi all,
I'm living in London at the moment, considering a move to KL to work at Sri KDU international school. Has anyone got anything to say about the school? Supportive place? Also, trying to figure out what constitutes a decent and competitive salary over there, is 11,300RM per month a fair haul?
All help much appreciated!

Hello and welcome to the forum 
There's a topic on the school here:
http://britishexpats.com/forum/malay...school-843773/
Unfortunately it's a slightly old thread and now closed, but nothing to stop you sending a PM to any of the posters (with more than 3 posts).
You might like to use the Search Box on here. Go to the Malaysia section menu and you'll see it on one of the Blue bars. I've just typed in KDU and 10 topics came up!! So give it a try.

Hi,
I live in Penang so know nothing about Sri KDU international school. Sorry.
However this trick might help you find 'hidden' information not to easy to find via normal online search.
1) Type 'Sri KDU international school' into the Google search box.
2) Under the search box, click the Images button
3) You'll then see lots of photos relating to the school
4) Mouse over the photos to see the source website/URL for each image
5) If the source website looks interesting, click on the image
6) Click on the Visit Page button which will take you to the source website where that image is located
Quite often this will lead you to articles etc. about the subject you are searching for. Sometimes you can learn a lot just my looking at the images.
Another trick worth trying in normal search is to type 'PDF' after your search term e.g. 'Sri KDU international school PDF'
This often brings up whole documents relating to your search.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Dear all,
I'm moving to Sri KDU in August, and was wondering if anyone else here was? Also, does anyone have any need to know information about the school?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Wow, it seems like quite a few people are going over to Sri KDU. I'll add my name to that list as well.
I'm going over in August, my wife and family are joining me later.

hey!
Don't be scared- it is amazing!
We arrived around 3 weeks ago and have settled in really well.
We visited the school before the end of term and it seems great, it's not too big and there seems to be a great atmosphere about the place.
The staff team are really welcoming and we have met up socially with some of them a couple of times.
Damansara is great, we love it! It's a typical Malaysian town and there is everything you need here.
What are you going to be teaching and when do you arrive? I shall try and PM you our details so we can get together when you arrive!

Hey, are you teach IGcse or IB?
IGCSE lessons are all an hour long, where as IB are sometimes an hour, or sometimes a double.
This is what I was lead to believe when I was shown round with my daughter anyway.
