Happy New Year everyone!
I received a lot of SMSs yesterday due to the completed rotation of the earth as we call it New Year. Thank you very much for your thoughts friends!. Let's talk something interesting that I see as starting good news for teachers and students. There are many good things await our education sector for this year. They are all going to be implemented this year. According to The Star newspaper here are the good news:
1. School will get an additional teacher for every five classes in the Education Ministry's move to improve the teacher-to-student ratio for secondary schools.
2. Free uniforms for students from families with monthly income of RM1000.00 and below.
3. Technical and vocational education in schools will be revamped to enhance skills to meet requirements of employers.
4. PSD sponsorship and scholarship to be increased from 5000 to 10000 for undergraduate students.
5. Inculcating patriotism: a pilot project will start on national service-type training for students at PMR-level as part of their co-curriculum activities.
6. Free school books for primary and secondary students and no more school fees.
