School of second chance


Caring teacher: Hishamuddin feels immense satisfaction when he managed to change the lives of his students at Sekolah Henry Gurney.

MELAKA: Hishamuddin Husin has absolutely no regrets about his decision to transfer to Sekolah Henry Gurney (SHG), a school for young offenders, in Telok Mas in Ayer Molek, in 2019.

Although some may perceive teaching at such an institution as a thankless job, for Hishamuddin it was quite the opposite: he sees the school as a place where young offenders get a second chance at life.
