Moving forward in teaching and learning


Sterling achievement: Education Minister Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin during the announcement of the SPM 2020 results on Thursday.

I REFER to the report “Many excel amid testing times” (The Star, June 11). The commendable performance of SPM 2020 candidates despite the challenges they encountered while preparing for the exam in the new normal is certainly a cause for celebration.

It also shows the success of Education Ministry officers, teachers and parents in facing off the challenges thrown at them by the Covid-19 pandemic. Many quarters are deservedly happy because this is the best performance in the SPM over the past five years, as revealed by Senior Education Minister Dr Radzi Jidin (pic).
