Preschool streamlining to only involve govt institutions, says deputy minister

Wong Kah Woh says private sector won’t be affected, details to be finalised soon

5:49 PM MYT

 

IPOH – The streamlining of the preschool education system will only involve institutions under government supervision, said Deputy Education Minister Wong Kah Woh.

Wong, however, said details regarding the matter would be finalised by the preschool coordination committee in the near future.

“On the part of the Education Ministry, we are in the process of finalising in detail all the procedures regarding the learning aspects of preschool students.

“From that finding, we will release a guideline that must be followed by preschools registered with the government only, without involving private preschools,” he said after a cheque presentation for pre-school aid at SMK Yuk Choy here today.

Earlier, Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil said the cabinet on January 24 had decided to realign the preschool education system nationwide to ensure a more comprehensive early childhood education.

Meanwhile, regarding an incident in Sabah on January 29 where a man was reported to have been arrested for threatening a teacher after his son, an SPM candidate, was allegedly punished for smoking in the school toilet, he said the ministry would leave investigations and further action to police as both parties had lodged reports.

The arrest of the 49-year-old man was confirmed by Kota Kinabalu police chief Mohd Zaidi Abdullah. – February 1, 2024
