Andrew Loh Wei Keong

FOUNDER & CEO

MBA (Finance) | BBA (Marketing)

Mr Andrew Loh is a multi-award-winning education entrepreneur, experienced educator and strategic education leader with over 13 years in education. As the founder of six education brands, he provides group-level direction across a growing education portfolio supporting more than 2,200 active students and involving over 280 educators and education leaders. At Fortis, he leads the development of a sustainable, high-quality and future-ready international school.

Beginning as a classroom teacher, he progressed into principalship, multi-branch management and group-level leadership. This journey has given him first-hand experience in teaching students, developing educators, building leadership teams and establishing sustainable education institutions.

Founderโ€™s Leadership & Education Impact

  • Progressed from Teacher and Principal to Multi-Branch Leader and Education Founder
  • Founded six education brands, with more than 5,000 students served through institutions and programmes under his leadership
  • Provides strategic leadership across a growing group of education brands supporting 2,200+ active students and 280+ educators and education leaders

  • Achieved a 93.3% Grade A rate among students in his final UPSR cohort

From Student to Educator and Founder

Mr Andrew founded his first education centre in 2013, personally teaching Mathematics, Mandarin and Science before progressing into principalship, multi-branch management and group-level education leadership.

Having experienced academic struggles during his own school years, he understands the challenges faced by students who fall behind or lose confidence. Through determination and the right guidance, he became a successful learner, completed his bachelorโ€™s and masterโ€™s degrees, earned multiple Deanโ€™s List recognitions and received an offer to pursue doctoral studies.

His journey shaped a lasting belief: a childโ€™s beginning should never determine their future. With the right mindset, guidance and educators, every child can improve, discover their strengths and transform their life.

Building Excellent Educators and Sustainable Institutions

Mr Andrew works closely with principals and senior management teams to guide educational strategy, school culture, leadership development, organisational growth and long-term sustainability.

His leadership extends beyond academic results. He places strong emphasis on developing capable education leaders, excellent teachers and passionate teams united by a shared commitment to strengthening studentsโ€™ knowledge, confidence, character and future readiness.

His Vision for Fortis

Mr Andrew founded Fortis upon a question close to every parentโ€™s heart:

What is the greatest gift we can give our children during their formative years?

His answer is future-readiness. At Fortis, this vision is built upon four pillars:

  • Knowledge
  • Skills
  • Character
  • Star โ€” Individual Potential

His goal is to prepare children not only for examinations, but also to become knowledgeable, confident, responsible and capable young adults who are ready for the real worldโ€”giving parents greater peace of mind as their children enter adulthood.

This belief became The Fortis Way and the foundation upon which Fortis International School was built.
