Parent Action Group for Education Malaysia (PAGE) chairman Datin Noor Azimah Abdul Rahim
Calling on the Education Ministry to have standards and benchmarks which students are required to achieve before they elevate to the next level, Parent Action Group for Education (Page) chairman Datin Noor Azimah Abdul Rahim cited the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), which is a yardstick for the English language used in schools, as a “fine example” of what needs to be done to address grade inflation in schools.
Grade inflation, she claimed, was evident in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2020 examination, which was held during the Covid-19 pandemic.
