Paragon prides itself on being an essential part of laying the foundation in shaping our children’s growth and career aspirations through 11 years of primary and secondary education.
Since its establishment in 2014, Paragon Private & International School has been committed to providing high-quality education, ensuring that students have an enriching and enjoyable learning experience. The campus houses both Paragon Private School (Malaysian National Curriculum) and Paragon International School (Cambridge IGCSE Curriculum), offering students two distinct academic pathways to suit their needs and goals.
Paragon is guided by its motto, “Non ducor, duco” (I am not led, I lead), reflecting its mission to develop students holistically in body, mind, and spirit. The school aims to instill leadership skills that contribute to societal progress. Students uphold the school’s five core values of Team Spirit, Respect, Integrity, Caring Spirit, and Diligence.
Located in Plentong, Johor Bahru, the school offers excellent facilities, providing students with a conducive environment to pursue their interests and passions.
Paragon International School integrates the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) and the Global Perspectives programme, equipping students with critical thinking, problem-solving, and global awareness. Practical life skills are developed through subjects like Design, Technology, and Home Economics (DTHE), while ICT courses ensure students gain essential digital competencies and readiness for the modern world.
Paragon Private School’s curriculum, aligned with the Malaysian National Syllabus by the Ministry of Education (MOE), focuses on the holistic development of students. While the Malay language serves as the main language of instruction, the school is certified under the Dual Language Programme (DLP), where Mathematics and Science subjects are taught in English, providing students with a competitive edge in a bilingual environment. This year, Sekolah Menengah Paragon has achieved a remarkable 5-star rating as a Private Secondary School in Malaysia under the Standard Kualiti Institusi Pendidikan Swasta (SKIPS) 2024. This recognition truly reflects our school’s commitment to excellence in education.
To further enrich the student experience, Paragon offers a wide range of Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) that help students explore their talents and develop new skills. Many have excelled in district, state, and national-level competitions.
Over the years, Paragon Alumni students have demonstrated distinctive success in academics, sports, and co-curricular activities, which has led to acceptance in renowned universities and colleges around the world. Graduating students have been awarded scholarships from prestigious colleges and universities as well as fully-funded JPA Scholarship to pursue tertiary education. High achievers are often head hunted at our school for their outstanding achievements which is a testament to the strong academic foundation and quality education attained at Paragon Private & International School.
