  4. Basic Facts • Malaysia’s education system – predominantly State controlled and financed. • The school system – 6-3-2-2 • Education policy – based on 1956 Razak Report. It called for state controlled, financed and unified with a common national curriculum. • University and University College Act 1971, Amendments to AUKU 1995.

  6. EDUCATION Pre-School Attendance in a pre-school program is not universal and generally only affluent families can afford to send their children to private, for-profit pre-schools.

  7. Primary Education There are two main types of public primary schools in Malaysia: national (Sekolah Kebangsaan in Malay, abbreviated as SK) and national-type (Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan, abbreviated as SJK). National-type schools are further divided into Chinese national-type schools (Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina, SJK(C)) and Tamil national-type schools (Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Tamil, SJK(T)).

  8. Primary education begins at the age of 7 and ends at 12. Students are promoted to the next year regardless of their academic performance (poor curriculum induced). By degree of government funding, national schools are government-operated, while national-type schools are mostly government-assisted, though some are government-operated.

  9. Primary education consists of six years of education, referred to as Year 1 to Year 6 (also known as Standard 1 to Standard 6). Year 1 to Year 3 are classified as Level One (TahapSatu) while Year 4 to Year 6 are considered as Level Two (TahapDua). From 1996 until 2000, the PenilaianTahapSatu (PTS) or the Level One Evaluation was administered to Year 3 students. Excellence in this test allowed students to skip Year 4 and attend Year 5 instead.

  10. Secondary Education Secondary education in Malaysia is conducted in secondary schools (Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan) for five years. National secondary schools use Malay as the main medium of instruction. • The only exceptions are the Mathematics and Science subjects as well as languages other than Malay, however this was only implemented in the year 2003.

  11. Malaysian national secondary schools are sub-divided into several types: National Secondary School (SekolahMenengahKebangsaan) Religious Secondary School (SekolahMenengah Agama) National-Type Secondary School (SekolahMenengahJenisKebangsaan) Technical Schools (SekolahMenengahTeknik) Residential Schools and MARA Junior Science College (MaktabRendahSains MARA).

  12. Pre-University After the SPM, students from public secondary school would have a choice of either studying Form 6 or the matriculation (pre-university). If they are accepted to continue studying in Form 6, they will also take the Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (which is usually abbreviated as STPM) or Malaysian Higher School Certificate examination

  13. Form 6 consists of two years of study Lower 6 (Tingkatan Enam Rendah) Upper 6 (Tingkatan Enam Atas) • Although it is generally taken by those desiring to attend public universities in Malaysia, it is internationally recognised and may also be used, though rarely required, to enter private local universities for undergraduate courses.

  14. Tertiary education Tertiary Eduication is heavily subsidised by the government. Applicants to public universities must have completed the Malaysia matriculation programme or have an STPM grade. Excellence in these examinations does not guarantee a place in a public university.

  15. The classification of tertiary education in Malaysia is organised upon the Malaysian Qualifications Framework (MQF) which seeks to set up a unified system of post secondary qualifications offered on a national basis both in the vocational as well as higher educational sectors.

  16. Some foreign universities and colleges have also set up branch campuses in Malaysia, including: Monash University, Australia. The University of Nottingham, United Kingdom SAE Institute, Australia Swinburne University of Technology, Australia Curtin University of Technology, Australia Raffles Design Institute, Singapore

  17. Postgraduate programmes Postgraduate degrees such as the Master of Business Administration (MBA) and the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) are becoming popular and are offered by both the public universities and the private colleges. All public and most private universities in Malaysia offer Master of Science degrees either through coursework or research and Doctor of Philosophy degrees through research.

  18. Vocational programmes and polytechnics schools Besides the university degrees, students also have the option of continuing their education in professional courses such as the courses offered by the ICSA (Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators) etc. Polytechnics in Malaysia provide courses for diploma level (3 years) and certificate level (2 years).

  19. Other types of Schools Islamic religious schools Chinese independent high schools International schools
