The Education Ministry will soon review the school curriculum.

Minister Rosy Akbar, says this is to ensure that it supports the four pillars namely literacy, numeracy, digital literacy and digital numeracy.

Akbar says this will allow students to flourish in the global market in the future and the time to develop them is now.

“We need to introduce smart classrooms, and technology enabled learnings with e-book. We need to ensure that we have modern, fit to purpose curriculum which will allow our student to work in the context of intelligence in the next few years.”  

Akbar says the curriculum starting from the Early Childhood Education needs to provide learning in communication, collaboration, creativity and critical reflections.

She adds the review will also ensure a student’s qualification is trusted by employers locally and internationally.
