The Blueprint is the result of a multitude of analyses,
interviews, surveys, and research conducted with
the support of national and international education
experts, officials, teachers, principals, and parents
all across Malaysia. In addition, through the National
Dialogue conducted earlier this year, almost 12,000
members of the public and various stakeholder groups
were consulted for their ideas and feedback.
In this Blueprint, we have set ourselves ambitious,
yet achievable and feasible tasks to build a strong
and efficient education system by 2025 that features
universal access all the way through to secondary
education, that will produce students who perform in
the top third of international student assessments, to
provide equal and quality educational opportunities
for all students regardless of background or
socioeconomic status and to instill a sense of common
Malaysian identity amongst all students.

provide quality teaching, guidance, and support for
our students. Placements of strong, school-based
leaders will help to ensure schools comply with the
high performance standards as prescribed by the
Ministry of Education Malaysia. Furthermore, I am
confident that with the cooperation from all internal
and external stakeholders the implementation of
this Blueprint will provide a sustainable and rapid
transformation of Malaysia’s Education System.
