CHIANG MAI: Perlis officials are to look into the possibility of shutting down religious schools that do not enable pupils to sit for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) public examination.
The Raja Muda of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail, said he had urged the Perlis Islamic Religious Affairs and Malay Customs Council (MAIPs) to conduct a special study into the matter.
He said religious schools in Perlis should be required to register with the Perlis Religious Affairs Department (JAIPs).
Tuanku Syed Faizuddin, who is MAIPs president, said the MAIPs Education Committee should look into the many complaints and requests from parents that children studying in religious schools within and outside Perlis should be given the opportunity to sit for the SPM.
“For that purpose, they want all operators of religious schools in Perlis to offer SPM,” he said after presenting MAIPs tithe to the Attaqwa Religious School here yesterday evening.
Tuanku Syed Faizuddin said failure to implement the rules would cause the students from such religious schools to be victims of its education system.
”I want MAIPs to target 2020 to implement the rules fully if the report on the study shows a positive feedback to uplift these religious schools besides enhancing the students’ marketability,” he said.
Hence, he wanted religious schools in Perlis to be required to register with the Perlis Islamic Religious Affairs Department (JAIPs).
He was in Chiangmai at the invitation of the Malaysian Woodball Association to receive the flag as organiser of the next Woodball Cup World Championship in Perlis in 2020. -FMT
