Primitive & Feudal Period (1400-1786)
Education during this period was typical of feudal societies.
Only the royalties and nobility had the benefits to formal education.
For the society, education was INFORMAL & LIMITED to acquiring skills vital for survival. Eg: Fishing & farming for boys, cookery & weaving for girls.

• [Divide and Rule]
1786-1941
• [Japanese occupation]
1941-1945
• [After Japanese occupation]
1945-1957
![Page 11: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The British Colonial Period (1786-1957)
The main concern of the British was to maintain peace &
order to facilitate the exploitation of the economic resources
of Malaya especially tin & rubber.
British encouraged mass immigration of workers from China
& India to work in the tin mines & rubber plantations
respectively.
The Malays remained in rural areas, the towns were
dominated by the Chinese & a minority of Indians who
eventually controlled commerce & industry.
![Page 12: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
1786-1941DIVIDE AND RULE (Laissez faire)
No clear policy on education.
Through their divide & rule policy, British did not intend to establish rapport between the different races in Malaya through a standardized education system.
Various vernacular schools were presented to only particular ethnic group run by either missionaries, rubber & coffee plantation owners, & local residents’ association.
![Page 13: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Each ethnic group were to be educated in their own language & learn to accept their roles in life.
British were to govern, Malays to cultivate the fields, Chinese were to run the mining industry & businesses, while Indians would be confined to plantations & estates.
This had contributed to the status quo of the different races in Malaya & identifying them with their previous economic activities.
![Page 14: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
There were 4 types of school during British colonization.
English-medium.Malay-medium.Chinese-medium.Tamil-medium.
![Page 15: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Malay Vernacular Schools
Students were taught with the basic of reading, writing & arithmetic as well as academic subjects such as Malay history & geography.
Schools were set up to ensure the younger generations were able to provide themselves and their future generations with living skills.
However, it garnered little response from the Malay society because skills like reading, writing & arithmetic were of little use to the village folk.
In addition, children were expected to carry out duties at home or in the fields.
![Page 16: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Thus, the British government implemented compulsory education in the late 1880s and early 1890s.
Malay Chiefs were commissioned to encourage parents to send their children to school.
The number of students increased to 8000 in 1909.

The pondok schools were still a very important means in the Unfederated States since the British government paid more attention on development in the Straits Settlements & the Federated Malay States.

The Malay vernacular schools provided education only in the primary level.
The British feared that Malay community would not maintain their status quo & remain as farmers and fishermen.
It was enough for them that the government administration positions were held by Malays princes and sons of the elite Malays who studied in English schools.

Vision Schools
• Aims:– Initiative to produce a Malaysian race (bangsa
Malaysia) built on love for the country & abolition of ethnic differences amongst its citizens.
– The importance of fostering racial unity early in an individual’s life.
• Concept:– Nation Primary School, Chinese National-type
Primary School & Tamil National-type Primary School will have their students to study in a common area.
![Page 59: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
• Rationale:– Pupils from diversified races interact with one another from an
early thus ensuring that our country is moving towards national unity.
• Issues:– Inculcation of ethnic & cultural diversity through printed & non-
printed materials, co-curricular activities & celebration of festivals.
– Equality in the implementation of school rules in accordance to the culture & beliefs of each ethnic group.
– Academic & non-academic staff of all races to enhance social interaction with the pupils.
– Fostering of positive ethnic identity awareness & the absence of superiority or inferiority complex founded on ethnicity.
– Open communication across ethnic groups through interaction during recess & co-curricular activities.
![Page 60: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
• Considerations:– Inadequate practice of collaborative teaching for pupils to
be exposed to & comprehend different cultural & social viewpoints.
– Inadequate specialized training for Vision Schools teachers in areas such as cross-cultural communication skills, cultural sensitivity.
– Balance between teachers’ & pupils’ background so as to bridge the social gap & enhance mutual understanding.
• Challenges:– Encounter stiff challenges from the private sector &
community.– Eg: Chinese schools were reluctant to get themselves
involved will probably lead to a loss of the Chinese identity & culture.

Education And Vision 2020
• Aim: To gain the status of "a fully developed country" for Malaysia by the year 2020.
• "By the year 2020, Malaysia can be a united nation, with a confident Malaysian society, infused by strong moral and ethical values, living in a society that is democratic, liberal and tolerant, caring, economically just and equitable, progressive and prosperous, and in full possession of an economy that is competitive, dynamic, robust and resilient."
![Page 73: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
9 challenges as stated in Vision 2020:
• 1) The challenge of establishing a united Malaysian nation with a sense of common and shared destiny. This must be a nation at peace with itself, territorially and ethnically integrated, living in harmony, full and fair partnership, made up of one "Bangsa Malaysia" with political loyalty and dedication to the nation.
• 2) The challenge of creating a psychologically liberated, secure and developed Malaysian Society with faith and confidence in itself, justifiably proud of what it is, of what it has accomplished, robust enough to face all manner of diversity. This Malaysian Society must be distinguished by the pursuit of excellence, fully aware of all its potentials, psychologically subservient to none, and respected by people of other nations.
• 3) The challenge of fostering and developing a mature, democratic society, practicing a form of mature consensual, community-oriented Malaysian democracy that can be a model for many developing countries.
![Page 74: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
• 4) The challenge of establishing a fully moral and ethnic society, whose citizens are strong in religious and spiritual values and imbued with the highest of ethical standards.
• 5) The challenge of establishing a matured, liberal and tolerant society in which Malaysians of all colours and creeds are free to practice and profess their custom, cultures and religious beliefs, yet feeling that they belong to one nation.
• 6) The challenge of establishing a scientific and progressive society, a society that is innovative and forward-looking, one that is not only a consumer of technology but also a contributor to the scientific and technological civilization of the future.
![Page 75: Development of the education system in malaysia edu3101](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103015/54bb75c14a795967238b45a8/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
• 7) The challenge of establishing a fully caring society and a caring culture, a social system in which society will come before self, in which the welfare of the people will revolve not around the state or the individual but around a strong and resilient family system.
• 8) The challenge of ensuring an economically just society in which there is fair and equitable distribution of the wealth of the nation, and there is full partnership in economic progress. Such a society cannot be in place so long as there is the identification of race with economic function, and the identification of economic backwardness with race.
• 9) The challenge of establishing a prosperous society, with an economy that is fully competitive, dynamic, robust and resilient.
