All pre-university pathways to be placed under Higher Education Ministry


KUALA LUMPUR: Plans are in motion to bring all pre-university pathways, including Form Six, under the Higher Education Ministry, says Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir.

"The government is currently planning to place everything under the ministry, including Form Six," the Higher Education Minister said, adding that implementation is expected either next year or the following year.

Zambry said this during the "In Person with Doc Zam" session, which was livestreamed as part of Universiti Malaya’s Week-of-Welcome for the 2025/2026 academic session on Thursday (July 17).

He was responding to a student’s question on why foundation studies (Asasi) fall under his ministry while Form Six remains under the Education Ministry.
