FORM five students sitting for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia examination in 2016 will need to pass the English Language paper in order to secure the SPM certificate.

In the past, students who failed the English Language paper got their SPM certificate because the English Language subject was not a compulsory pass subject.
