THE state of the nation’s education system has been under close scrutiny for some time now. Practically everyone has something negative to say. Not only are educationists pouring out their frustrations over the sorry state of the system but virtually every sector of society has joined the fray too.
The new Education Minister, Dr Maszlee Malik, who has promised to overhaul the entire system is under a lot of pressure to deliver. Admittedly, it is not an easy task. There are many conflicting demands. In a Whatsapp group to which I belong, strong words about the many years of abuse are all too common. All are calling for a total revamp not only at the primary and secondary levels, but more so at the tertiary levels.
