TEACHER education in Malaysia is set for a major transformation as announced in the 2017 Budget, which has identified 11 of the existing 27 Teacher Education Institutes (TEI) as facilities to train not only new trainee teachers, but also for future primary school teachers.
The remaining 16 institutes will be converted into vocational, polytechnic colleges and training centres for in-service teachers, with the Raja Melewar TEI in Seremban and the Tengku Bainun TEI in Penang earmarked as Permata Pintar Centres.
