Sunway & Magdalen College School: Education with Purpose

Education today isn’t just about where you study, it’s about what kind of world you’re being prepared for. A new partnership between Sunway International Schools and Magdalen College School, Oxford is bringing together these two different yet deeply aligned institutions, who are united in the belief that great education should open minds, build character, and prepare young people for a world that’s constantly changing. We’ll be exploring what that means with Helen Pike, the Master of Magdalen College School, Oxford, and Prof. Cheng Mien Wee, the Executive Director of Sunway International Schools.
