Education Ministry should release matriculation admission guidelines


WITH the recent clarification on the 2025 matriculation admission criteria, the immediate issue appears to have been resolved. However, due to repeated last-minute changes and inconsistency in recent years, MCA strongly urges the Education Ministry to publish a comprehensive and transparent admissions guide without further delay. This would allow next year's SPM candidates to prepare with confidence and help avoid further disruption caused by sudden policy shifts.

Currently, the absence of clear guidance has left many students and their families uncertain and confused. This ongoing uncertainty has led to growing frustration and declining public confidence in the ministry and the government as a whole.
