Life at PTABOS
Study/Life Balance PTABOS makes learning fun and motivates students through a conducive environment as students spend more than half their day on books, classes and school homework. We aim to create a balance in learning for students whereby we commit ourselves in looking after student welfare as well focusing on their grades. These have been achieved through our dedicated transport services and holiday programmes for schoolchildren of all ages.
6 Our Core Beliefs A real education, we believe, is powered by three core tenets — D (Discipline), A (Attitude), P (Performance) D FOR “DISCIPLINE”
Our key approach is to motivate students in mastering these 3 areas, so that they can fully grow with us.
D A
Learners at PTABOS are trained with a mindset of “work smart”, but also “work hard”. We believe every child is gifted with a beautiful mind, and, with proper discipline, they can develop positive habits which lead to future success when they realize their fullest potential.
P
A FOR “ATTITUDE” The cornerstone of an A+ in academics takes an A+ in “Attitude”. At PTABOS, we encourage maximum effort from both teachers and students when it comes to positive thinking, respect, and responsibility. An A+ attitude injects constructive changes into your life. It makes you happier, brighter and more successful!
P FOR “PERFORMANCE” “Performance” is how we measure our progress. As an institution for learning, PTABOS’ existence is centralised on helping its students excel in life, as an individual, and as a student. We monitor the results of our teaching with the utmost care and are committed to continuous improvement of our delivery and students’ performance.

Launched in November 2019, our system has been rolled out prior to the wave of online learning precipitated by the new normal, with observable success and distinct advantages over physical classes.

Students’ Academic Journey
All students within the Malaysian education system to undergo 6 years of primary education and 5 more years of secondary education. At the end of their secondary education, students sit for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), a public common examination which determines whether students will be able to pursue higher education at their desired institutions, based on their academic grades. School leavers with SPM qualifications can opt to obtain a pre-university qualification (such as the sixth form, matriculation programmes and GCE 'A' levels) or study for a certificate or diploma at higher educational institutions. The time needed to complete a pre-university programme depends on the type of programme students usually take a year to complete a matriculation programme or STAM and one-and-a-half to two years for STPM and A-levels.

Holidays Programmes and Activities
The holidays are here and we’re here to help Being a tuition centre doesn’t mean we have to be boring during holidays! Students can join us during the holidays for bonding and a great time with our seasonal holiday programmes — up to 4 times a year. We have field trips, cooking classes, teambuilding games, revision quizzes, workshops... and a large selection of other special programmes your child can participate in!
Grades still matter and we care too Your child isn’t defined by their grades — but they do still matter in high school, in their college search, and maybe even life after college! Education is widely viewed as a reflection of an individual’s skills and abilities. Good grades are solid evidence that your child has the required level of understanding, discipline, attitude, and performance required for their roles in society.
