Malaysia - Primary and Secondary Education Sector Project (Eighth Education Loan)
Zeijlon, Anders
The First Primary and Secondary Education Sector Project will help finance the first five-year phase of a ten-year program to develop and improve the primary and secondary education subsector under the Fifth Malaysia Plan (1986-1990). This includes: (i) the provision of 4000 student places to replace the most inadequate teacher training facilities; (ii) the provision of about 3300 primary and secondary classrooms, and related boarding and related staff housing facilities in the most disadvantaged and overcrowded school districts; and (iii) an increase in educational resources through the provision of about eight million school library books, and equipment for 5400 rural schools and 350 district resource centers. The project intends also to finance a development program for about 500 key educational officers, including fellowships abroad and local training, and studies on quality, cost-efficiency and equity in education.
