SHAH ALAM: The national education policy, which currently does not implement exams for Year 6 in primary schools and Form 3 in secondary schools, needs to be revamped, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
He said this follows the discovery that around 10,177 Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) candidates last year did not sit for the exams, and problems with reading, writing, and arithmetic (3M) were among the issues identified.
