Taylor's Education Group Adds SenTia School in Hanoi to K-12 Portfolio

Dato' Loy Teik Ngan, TEG's executive chairman, said in a statement that quality education needs "rigour and heart" and that SenTia, alongside BUV, creates "an integrated K-12 to university pathway" that lets Vietnamese students progress with confidence rooted in local identity. SenTia founder Ms Tran Nhat Minh said the school's dedication to Vietnamese values stays unchanged, and TEG's support lets them expand academic pathways while keeping identity central.

TEG now runs 11 institutions across three countries, including Australian International School Malaysia, Garden International School, Nexus International Schools, Lexel International School, and Taylor's International Schools. It serves more than 35,000 students annually with an alumni network of over 100,000. The SenTia addition brings Vietnam deeper into that web.

The move makes strategic sense. Vietnam's K-12 market is expanding as the middle class grows and families seek bilingual options that keep local curriculum ties. SenTia offers a differentiated product: a Vietnamese national curriculum paired with Oxford International, housed in an award-winning campus. TEG already has university presence through BUV. Adding a K-12 feeder gives it a cradle-to-career story that competing groups like VAS or International Schools of Ho Chi Minh City cannot match in scale.

TEG's recent additions, including SenTia, reflect its strategy of buying access to growing markets where it can layer in its university pipeline. For Vietnamese families, the pitch is straightforward: start at SenTia, move to BUV or Taylor's, land at a partner university abroad. That funnel is now complete.
