Hi Dr Ankita, there are a number of international schools in Kuala Lumpur, and each of these has its own admission requirements and procedures, so it's best to contact the school directly for further information. You can find a list of these schools, along with a link to their website, on our Education and  Schools in Kuala Lumpur page. For more general information about the education system in Malaysia, have a read of our Education and Schools in Malaysia page. 

There are a number of expat groups for Indians in Malaysia, which may be able to help you with info on acticity classes and mothers groups in KL. They are also a great way to meet people and make new friends. One such group is the Bharat Club Kuala Lumpur. Another organisation that may be useful to you is the NRIcommunity.com which is a community of Indian expats living abroad. 

Ampang is a popular expat area of KL which has a number of international schools. Housing options in Ampang are diverse, although most condos and apartments are within lower-rise buildings. The construction can vary from new to dated and the streets are generally quiet and safe. Average rental for a house in Ampang is in the range of RM2,000 - RM10,000 depending on the size, location etc. To learn more about finding an apartment in Kuala Lumpur see Accommodation in Malaysia
