There will be lots of kindergarten available in Bayan Lepas but be aware you HAVE to send your child to a private or international school because foreigners cant use the government schools. Government Schools do not teach subjects in English.

Yes the tuition is in English.

For fees take a look at websites of the schools average cost is RM1500-2000 per month but some upfront payments required such as registration.

Do some research on other schools on Penang Island by doing a Google search

There are also Chinese schools which teach in English and Mandarin.
