KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): Educational institutions under the Ministry of Education (MOE) in Selangor, Melaka, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya will still reopen on Oct 4 based on the operations stipulated for states in Phase Two under the National Recovery Plan (NRP).

"As such, the operations of educational institutions in these states (Selangor, Melaka, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya) according to stipulations under Phase Three of the NRP will be from Oct 18.
"This involves an increase in the enrolment of other students including preschool students, public examination classes in full boarding schools/day schools/private schools, International Baccalaureate Diploma (IBD), Malaysian Sports School Pre-University as well as other international examination classes,” added the statement.
The operations under Phase Two, meanwhile, will involve special needs pupils in Special Education Primary School, Special Education Secondary School, Special Education Vocational Secondary School and Special Education Integrated Programme.
