ALOR SETAR: Children aged six will only be eligible to enter Year One in 2027 if they successfully pass a special diagnostic test to be introduced by the Education Ministry.
Its Minister Fadhlina Sidek said that this move aligns with the implementation of the National Education Development Plan (RPN) 2026 - 2035, as announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and aims to provide parents with flexibility in determining the early educational path for their children.
