3,038 schools under-enrolled, have less than 150 pupils: MoE

However, deputy minister says they will still receive attention from ministry, none will be closed despite low numbers

5:32 PM MYT

 

TELUK INTAN – A total of 3,038 schools in the country are categorised as under-enrolled this year, with fewer than 150 pupils each. 

Deputy Education Minister Wong Kah Woh said that even though the schools were categorised as under-enrolled, they would continue receiving attention from the ministry and none would be closed. 

“This includes providing allocations for necessary facilities and upgrading work to give equal balance to all types of schools,” he told reporters after visiting SJK(T) Ladang Sg Samak, Ulu Bernam here today. 

He said that in Perak alone there were 419 under-enrolled schools and this year the state education department had allocated RM38,000 to all government schools regardless of the number of students. 

The Education Ministry has also drawn up several strategies to deal with the issue under the Under-Enrolled Schools Implementation Roadmap initiative.  

Wong said among the strategies were the implementation of combined classes and the merging of under-enrolled schools in addition to the transfer or relocation of the schools. 

“The combined classes would involve with Standard 2, 3, 4 and 5 pupils in schools with an enrollment of 30 students and below,” he said. 

Earlier, Wong visited six schools in the Teluk Intan parliamentary constituency and channelled an allocation of RM50,000 to each school for upgrading and maintenance work. – April 15, 2024
