POLICY : NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY

OBJECTIVES
1. as declared in the Education Ordinance, 1957 is to establish an education system that
will be able to meet the needs of the State and promote its cultural, social, economic,
and political development
2. The Razak Statement of 1956 and the Rahman Talib Report of 1960, interpreted it as
integrating multiracial school children and providing labor ("people's power," a term
used by the Cabinet Committee Report) for economic needs.
STRATEGY
-Making the National Language the main medium of instruction
-Hold the same and Malaysia-oriented curriculum for all types of schools
-Create a common examination system for all
-Smoothing education management procedures

STRENGTH NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY

1. National Integration In KBSR And KBSM
- The goal of the Integrated Secondary School Curriculum (KBSM) and the New Primary
School Curriculum (KBSR) is to raise the standard of education in the nation.
- In addition to the mastery of Malay as the National Language and developing an attitude of
human values based on national unity, students can also get along, appreciate the rights and
abilities of others and have a spirit of cooperation and tolerance.
2. Foster unity
- Both Abdul Rahman Talib's Report and Razak's 1956 Statement have provided a clear
outline of the educational strategy pertaining to racial unity.
- In this education system, it has given advantage and emphasis on the use of Bahasa Melayu
as the main medium of instruction. While the Malay and English subjects are compulsory
subjects for all schools. In addition, this system also maintains the use of Chinese and Tamil
ethnic languages as the mother tongue in national type schools (SJK).
WEAKNESS NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY
1. Vernacular system
- Before Malaysia gained its independence, the country's educational system consisted of
multiple streams, or more colloquially, vernacular education.
- Malaysia's education system is currently adapting to the shifting demands of society as well
as the current trends of globalization and modernization.
- This shift is unaffected by modifications to the educational system, which continues to
support national schools, Chinese national-type school, and Tamil national-type schools.
Many concerns about this educational system were brought up. But despite all of the
deliberations, the decision came to a standstill without offering a way to upgrade the current
system.
- Malaysia is a multiracial country, concerns about the school system are delicate because it
can be difficult to win over people with disparate interests and points of view. Every decision
that has been made has been thwarted by the political power of the home country, preventing
the agreed decision from being put into action.
-Although it is well known that the government is constantly working to raise the standard of
education in the country, it is unclear how much each action will actually be able to address
the issues that crop up.

2. Exam Orientation And Academic Achievement

- Exams as a means of gaining employment is emphasized in the current educational system,
which is a cultural shortcoming. Parents expect their children to perform well on all exams,
and they take this matter very seriously.
- Through observation, it was discovered that an excessively exam-focused system is deemed
unworkable and unfit for evaluating students' actual aptitudes, burdening both educators and
learners.

RECOMMENDATION
1. The use of the national language as the language of the sender
- Bahasa Melayu has been designated as the primary language of instruction at the school and
study levels in the national education policy. Consequently, learning Malay has become an
obligatory subject for all students.
- The official language of our nation is Malay. According to the National Language Act of
1967 and Article 152 of the Federal Constitution of Malaysia, which both recognize Malay as
the official language of the nation
2. Become engaged in extracurricular activities, particularly those that involve people of
different races.
- like the Youth & Beliawanis Association, uniformed bodies, and adoption programs.
- Regardless of the state or federal level, the KoKurikulum Center's Integration Camp
Program is one instance of a non-academic activity that has been put into practice.
