KSSR

The Standard Curriculum for Primary Schools (KSSR) will be introduced this year, starting with Year One pupils.It will be more holistic and less examination-oriented for pupils.The KSSR will replace the existing primary school integrated curriculum (KBSR), which was first introduced in 1983, and subsequently reviewed in 2003.

Changes have been made in areas related to curriculum, assessment, teacher training, monitoring as well as teaching and learning approaches.This means the curriculum is pupil-centred with an emphasis on fun learning, critical and creative thinking, reasoning skills, communication and ICT literacy.
