We already have a fairly complete and orderly SOP, what is important is compliance. Parents also have to constantly remind their children to abide by the stipulated SOPs. We have emphasised to schools that every SOP must be complied with and students must always be reminded to comply with the SOP, said the Education Minister.
Mohd Radzi said this when speaking to reporters at reporters at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Dato Abu Bakar Baginda, Sungai Merab in Bandar Baru Bangi here on Monday (April 5) when observing the return of students to the school after a week-long holiday.
PETALING JAYA: After a year of unprecedented challenges, the Education Ministry is taking the country’s education system to new heights in line with the fourth industrial revolution.
The first step, said minister Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin, was to enhance the national digital education and Jalinan Digital Negara (Jendela) initiative involving schools.
At present, the ministry has several digital education platforms, such as the Digital Educational Learning Initiative Malaysia (Delima).
“We will enhance our existing platforms and add more. These digital sources will ensure that our students have access to the latest, interactive learning materials.
“Jendela is under the purview of the Communications and Multimedia Ministry but we will work together to ensure that its implementation in schools is conducted smoothly, ” he said in an interview with the media on the ministry’s achievements for the past year.

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 22 Education Minister Datuk Mohd Radzi Md Jidin’s announcement last Friday that schools will reopen from March 1 caught some parents, especially in areas still under a movement control order (MCO), off guard.
Social media blew up with angry comments over the announcement, especially since parents had rushed to secure gadgets for the ministry’s home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) programme just weeks prior.
