About SRI Knewton International School Miri

SRI Knewton International School in Miri operated as Tenby Schools Miri until its 2020 rebrand under the Knewton Global Schools group. The group runs three campuses across Malaysia: Rawang, Ipoh, and Miri. The Miri campus is the only Knewton school in East Malaysia, giving it a distinct role serving families in northern Sarawak and the broader Miri oil-and-gas corridor.

The school runs dual streams: an international track and a Malaysian national track. This model, inherited from the Tenby era, allows families to choose between international qualifications and the national SPM pathway without changing schools. Facilities include science labs, design and technology workshops, music suites, art studios, a swimming pool, and sports courts.
