Year Four exams to be introduced this year, focus on four core subjects, says Anwar


PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia will reinstate a centralised national assessment system for primary schools beginning this year. Year Four pupils are set to sit for examinations administered by the Examinations Board, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar said the move marks the return of the Malaysian learning matrix system. This system is aimed at strengthening early academic foundations and identifying learning gaps before pupils transition to secondary school.
