Definitely no!

Actually, Education@Iskandar Sdn Bhd (EISB), a subsidiary of Iskandar Investment Bhd, signed a landmark agreement to develop Marlborough College Malaysia, as part of a long-term plan to establish EduCity – located within Iskandar Malaysia – as a world-class education hub.

The agreement to develop Marlborough College Malaysia was officially signed between EISB, Marlborough Overseas Ltd and M East Sendirian Berhad in the presence of Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, British High Commissioner for Malaysia His Excellency Boyd McCleary and Iskandar Investment chairman Tan Sri Azman Mokthar.

Marlborough College Malaysia is the first international venture for the leading British independent, co-educational boarding school for pupils aged between 13 and 18. It is expected to open in September 2012. The college is expected to create over 340 job opportunities in the academic and non-academic sectors, with additional employment and business opportunities in the future.

Marlborough College Malaysia will provide first class education to local and international students across Asia. Located in close proximity to Medini, Iskandar Malaysia’s flagship development, Marlborough College Malaysia campus will welcome its first intake of 350 students in June 2012, with enrollment projected to increase gradually to up to 1,300 students in 2020.

You got a world class college near to Legoland, what else could a kid ask for?
