PM congratulates two schools shortlisted for world's best school prizes

 

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim congratulated two Malaysian schools shortlisted in the Top 10 for the World's Best School Prizes 2023 today.

The two schools are Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Seri Permai, Penang, listed in the Innovation category, while SK Kanchong Darat, Selangor, is in the Supporting Healthy Lives category.

"I salute the educators and children for this achievement. Wishing you many more successes in the future," he tweeted.

The five World's Best School Prizes, founded last year by T4 Education, celebrate schools that have significantly impacted their students, wider community, and society.

A prize of US$250,000 (RM1.15 million) will be shared equally among the winners of the five awards - for community collaboration, environmental action, innovation, overcoming adversity and supporting healthy lives.

The top three finalists for each prize will be announced in September, with the winners in October.
