Hillview International School offers an amazing teaching and learning experience at nursery, primary and high school levels.
Our High School is a vibrant and enjoyable place to learn and excel in a diversity of subjects using modern and innovative teaching and learning methods. Whether it’s using augmented reality to learn about Shakespeare or Minecraft and robotics to teach computing and technology, our students are learning in relevant and exciting ways.
Our High School follows the University of Cambridge International education programme, based on the National Curriculum of England, and offers the highest standard in global education.
Academic and All-Round Excellence
Our IGCSE class of 2020 are forecast a 100% pass-rate at Grades A* to C in all subjects. As a Cambridge Checkpoint School, our students take internationally recognised exams at the end of Year 9. To date, our student body has achieved a 100% pass rate and 86% of results ranking as “Excellent” or “Very Good”.
Excellent student teacher ratios, with smaller class sizes, allow our students to choose more IGCSE subjects than they could at other schools, with up to 11 IGCSE courses available to each student.
Our JASS programme (the first of its kind in Malawi) and our Rotary Interact Club give our students opportunities to plan and run fundraising events, and support local and international charities and community projects, such as supporting the local Jacaranda orphanage. These help our students to develop their leadership and organisational skills, whilst improving their sense of social responsibility.
Business, Science and Technology Education
We are the only international school in Malawi that offers Business & Enterprise Studies from Year 7. We recognise the importance of preparing students to lead their own businesses and departments, so our students all have opportunities to run simulated business activities.
We are also the only school that runs separate Computer Science and ICT classes. Our ICT lessons are focused on the business applications of technology, such as MS Office, while Computer Science develops students’ engineering and problem-solving skills.
As part of our commitment to STEM, our Computer Science and Design & Technology courses include website design, architectural drawing, graphic design, robotics, programming and 3D modelling and manufacture in partnership with The Polytechnic.
Blended eLearning Platform
We are proud of our excellent e-learning platform, provided through Google Classroom and supported by Google-certified teachers. We will continue to offer exceptional student support through this digital platform, supplementing the teaching we deliver in the classroom. Homework, additional resources and supporting materials will be available through Google Classroom.
These 21st century tools help our students engage in creative and collaborative projects, both inside and outside the physical classroom. Sharing lessons through our e-learning platform allows absent students the opportunity to catch up and empowers students to revisit lessons and improve outcomes through effective revision.

Excellent Teacher–Student Ratios
Our school has a strong sense of community and is a place where no one is left behind. Teachers and students build strong relationships which allow teachers to tailor their instruction to all learners. This is something only possible in a single stream school with small class sizes.
Daily School Bus between Blantyre and Limbe
Every morning, our school bus picks up from multiple locations in Blantyre to get your children to school safely on time. At the end of every school day, following the completion of our afternoon programmes, the school bus returns the children to Blantyre to their chosen drop off points.
As a small school, we ask our families what locations they need collecting from and arrange a suitable central pick up and drop off point accordingly to best take care of our school community.
