Education Minister Muhyiddin Yassin today said that the ministry will not allow schools to choose the language used for the teaching of maths and science as this would complicate matters.
According to Muhyiddin, providing choice would pose difficulties in planning.
"If (schools are allowed) choices, there will be a mess (kucar-kacir) in the education system.
"It will be hard for the ministry to plan. If a school chooses to teach in English, or in Bahasa Melayu, how will we provide teachers?" he asked.
Pressure groups consisting of concerned parents are asking for the government to allow schools to choose the language of instruction for these two subjects following the policy change to revert teaching in Bahasa Malaysia.
