in the Straits Settlements of Penang, Melaka, and
Singapore. The oldest English school in Malaya is the

Malay and English are compulsory subjects in all
schools.
Starting in 2003, the government introduced the use
of English as a medium of teaching in all science
subjects, criticised by some as creatingdiscrimination between students who are and who
are not fluent in English. This was later revoked and
Malay, Chinese and Tamil will once again be the
languages of instruction for the sciences in 2012.

In other Asian countries such as Singapore and China, standardised
tests are a common feature, contributing to the high numbers of school
dropouts.
Public secondary schools are regarded as extensions of the
national schools. They study in five forms. Each form will
take a year.
At the end of Form 3, the Penilaian Menengah Rendah or
Lower Certificate of Education or Lower SecondaryEvaluation is taken by students.
