Chong: No three-in-one workbooks

KUALA SELANGOR: Despite a directive that only one workbook should be used by pupils in Year Four and above, several schools are bending the rules by combining two or three workbooks – and selling them as one at a higher price.

Last month, the ministry announced that pupils from Year One to Three should not use workbooks, while pupils from Year Four to Six are only allowed one workbook per core subject – Mathematics, Science and Chinese or Tamil.
