After primary school, students transition to secondary school, which spans five years.
The Malaysian education system is primarily governed by the Ministry of Education (MOE). It follows a standardized path: preschool (ages 4-6), primary school (Years 1-6, ages 7-12), lower secondary (Forms 1-3, ages 13-15), upper secondary (Forms 4-5, ages 16-17), and post-secondary (Form 6, matriculation, or vocational colleges).
