Kwasa Damansara to Gain Major Education Hub Through Kwasa Land-Educ8 Partnership
In a move that further solidifies Kwasa Damansara’s vision as a thriving, future-ready township, master developer Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd has partnered with Educ8 Group to establish a major education facility spanning 11.6 acres. The newly signed Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) marks a milestone in the township’s evolution, blending infrastructure development with the long-term socioeconomic goal of fostering a holistic community ecosystem.
The land, located within the heart of Kwasa Damansara, will be transformed into a comprehensive learning facility catering to over 1,500 students, offering new educational opportunities for residents across Selangor and Greater Kuala Lumpur.
🎓 Education as a Pillar of Township Growth
Speaking on the collaboration, Kwasa Land managing director Datuk Adenan Md Yusof emphasized the centrality of education to the township’s long-term vision.
“The education facilities to be built within the township are not just an asset to the community—they are a transformative element that will attract families, promote lifelong learning and support the township’s long-term aspirations.”
This initiative aligns with Kwasa Land’s mission of creating a green, connected and inclusive city, designed not just for residential comfort but also for social upliftment, sustainability, and knowledge-based development.
Educ8’s involvement, under its subsidiary ECM Kwasa Damansara Sdn Bhd, demonstrates its expanding footprint in delivering international-standard learning environments throughout Malaysia.
“This new development will provide an exceptional learning environment for families within the Kwasa Land master development and those residing in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor,” said Educ8 CEO Mark Lankester, adding that the campus will maintain the group’s hallmark of high-quality educational standards.
🏙️ Strategic Location within a Transit-Oriented Development
Kwasa Damansara’s positioning between Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam gives it multi-modal accessibility, making it an ideal educational and residential hub. Key infrastructure highlights include:
-
2 MRT Lines (MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang and MRT2 Putrajaya Line)
-
2 KTM Komuter Stations
-
6 Major Highways, including the DASH and Guthrie Corridor Expressway
This transit-oriented masterplan promotes sustainable urban mobility, reducing dependency on cars and fostering an eco-conscious lifestyle—a factor that significantly enhances the appeal of educational institutions within the township.
🌿 Integrated Township with Sustainable and Inclusive Goals
Kwasa Damansara is set to become one of Malaysia’s most ambitious urban developments, spanning 2,257 acres. The blueprint for the township includes:
-
25,000 housing units, of which 10,000 are affordable homes
-
250 acres of green zones, including 9 planned urban parks
-
Retail, commercial, recreational and institutional zones, woven together by walkable paths and public transport
The education facility by Educ8 will complement the public school plots already designated in the masterplan, addressing both private and public education demand in tandem.
🤝 Growing List of Strategic Development Partners
Kwasa Land has, to date, signed agreements with 13 development partners, accounting for 780 acres of land development rights—equivalent to 59% of the township’s total saleable land (1,331 acres). This reflects a gross development value (GDV) approaching RM40 billion.
The developer’s recent tender for 200 acres of prime residential plots and continued infrastructure enhancements illustrate a well-paced trajectory for both residential and commercial readiness.
