Private educationists: Overturn decision on forecast results

PETALING JAYA: Senior private educationists have appealed to the Education Ministry to overturn its decision to bar private institutions of higher learning from accepting forecast Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) exam results for entry into pre-university or foundation programmes.

Sunway Education Group senior executive director Elizabeth Lee said the private institutions had appealed to the Education Ministry and the Performance Management and Delivery Unit (Pemandu) when the practice was first reviewed.
