With the launch of the education plan for 2026–35, we examine whether it can realistically deliver on the country’s ambitions as the government maps out its next decade-long direction for the education system.
BFM talks to Chan Soon Seng, the CEO of Teach for Malaysia, and Nina Adlan Disney, the managing director of LeapEd Services.
They look at what the plan gets right, what still needs fixing and where priorities should lie, especially in a system shaped by uneven outcomes and constant reform fatigue. From classrooms and teachers to assessments and skills development, they ask what kind of students this plan is ultimately trying to produce.
