The Malaysian Education system

The Malaysian Education system includes several types of secondary school providing five years of education from Form 1 to Form 5 (age 11 to 16).

Examinations: at the end of Form 3 all students take a standard national examination known as the PMR (Penilaian Menengah Rendah) - this was formerly known as the SRP (Sijil Pelajaran Rendah) and before that it was called the LCE (Lower Certificate of Education). The results of this examination are used to split students into Arts and Science streams. At the end of Form 5 students take the Malaysian Certificate of Education examination now known as the SPM (Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia) which evolved from the British "O" Level General Certificate of Education (GCE).

Types: there are various types of secondary school:

National Secondary Schools (Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan), abbreviated to SMK, are government schools which provide education using the national language (Bahasa Malaysia) as the medium

National Type Schools (Sekolah Menengah Jenis Kebangsaan), abbreviated to SMJK, are Chinese-medium secondary schools

National Technical Schools (Sekolah Menengah Teknik) provide a skills-based and engineering education

Independent Schools are privately run and funded

Data: where available, enrolment data is given, with number of pupils and number of staff (bilangan murid (enrolmen) dan bilangan guru), together with the staff-student ratio given as the number of pupils per teacher (nisbah staf akademik dan pelajar). Where different sources give a different phone no., both are given here.
