KUALA LUMPUR: Penang Wanita Umno chief Zainab Bakar has suggested that the Ujian Pencapaian Sekolah Rendah and Form Three Assessment be reinstated to better prepare students for further education.
“Previously, we had the UPSR and also the PT3 with the latter also streaming students either into science or arts clusters.“Teachers and parents have also voiced concerns that the abolishing of standard examinations may result in students feeling aimless about their future,” she said when debating the Wanita Umno policy speech here during the 2024 Umno general assembly here on Thursday .
