教育部计划在2027年新建10所K11学校，以改善农村地区的入学条件，国会下议院表示。

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 — The Ministry of Education (MOE) plans to expand the K11 Comprehensive School Programme to 10 more schools next year to improve access to education from primary to secondary level, particularly in rural areas.

Deputy Education Minister Wong Kah Woh said nine schools had implemented the programme since its introduction in 2023, enabling students to complete their education from Year One to Form Five under one roof.

He said the pilot programme was first introduced at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Long Bedian in Sarawak and SMK Benta in Pahang.

“We are aware that some schools are not yet ready to transition to K9 or K11 schools. However, provided the conditions are suitable, the ministry will ensure that access to education remains available,” he said during the question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat today.

He added that the ministry provided 18 types of assistance to schoolchildren in both urban and rural areas.

Wong was responding to a question from Datuk Mohd Kurniawan Naim Moktar (BN-Kinabatangan) on the ministry’s strategic action plan to address the risk of long-term school dropout among students from multidimensionally hardcore poor households.

He said the ministry continued to narrow the educational gap through targeted interventions and periodic curriculum improvements as part of its long-term strategy.

Under the District Transformation Programme, targeted interventions were implemented in 744 schools in 2025, benefiting 41,817 students across six core subjects.

The initiatives aimed to address disparities in academic achievement based on geographical location, socioeconomic background and gender.

Wong said the proportion of rural Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) candidates eligible to receive their certificates rose from 92.31 per cent in 2024 to 92.9 per cent in 2025.

Meanwhile, the gender gap in certificate eligibility rates narrowed from 5.95 percentage points to 5.32 percentage points over the same period.

He said the targeted interventions, academic support and curriculum improvements reflected the ministry’s commitment to promoting educational equity and ensuring that every student had access to quality education, regardless of socioeconomic background. — Bernama

吉隆坡，10 月 28 日讯——教育部计划明年将 K11 综合学校计划扩展到另外 10 所学校，以改善从小学到中学阶段的教育机会，尤其是在农村地区。

教育部副部长黄家和表示，自2023年该计划推出以来，已有九所学校实施了该计划，使学生能够在同一个屋檐下完成从一年级到五年级的教育。

他说，试点计划首先在砂拉越的隆贝迪安国中（SMK）和彭亨的文塔国中推出。

“我们注意到一些学校还没有做好过渡到K9或K11学校的准备。但是，只要条件合适，教育部将确保学生继续享有受教育的机会，”他在今天国会下议院的问答环节中说道。

他还补充说，教育部向城乡地区的学童提供了18种类型的援助。

黄先生是在回答拿督莫哈末·库尼亚万·奈姆·莫克塔尔（国阵-京那巴当岸）提出的问题时，该问题涉及教育部为解决多方面极端贫困家庭学生长期辍学风险而制定的战略行动计划。

他表示，作为长期战略的一部分，教育部将继续通过有针对性的干预措施和定期的课程改进来缩小教育差距。

在地区转型计划下，2025 年在 744 所学校实施了有针对性的干预措施，使 41,817 名学生在六门核心科目中受益。
