Here are the toilet of the school, Turkish toilets as you can see. You can also see a hose coming out of the side wall, c is a jet of water to clean because here there is no toilet paper, as in India, thanks to clean water with al his left hand, then we wash hands after leaving the toilet and eat so with the right hand (not covered here either ...). By cons to the difference of India there are flushing water here in India was poured a bucket of water into the hole.
Here is a picture of a schoolgirl in Malay primary school. We told you in the mail Summary on Malaysia that c was a Muslim country and that any nascent Malay in Malaysia was thus necessarily Muslim. Islam in the schools is taught as a compulsory subject, most of all children must do the prayer every morning and every evening before going home and all the girls should be veiled (as in the street it is strongly advised has all the Malay women wear the veil, those who do not are frowned upon for information 20 years ago barely AC, nobody wore the veil in Malaysia and yet they were already Muslim era al.). Some boys also wear a little hat on the skull by the cons but this is not mandatory, it's a parental choice. By cons of freedom cult due regard for the Chinese in Malaysia and India, these are the only school was al not having to wear veils, attend classes on Islam and not be forced to pray, they wait in silence during this time.
To return to uniforms, they are the same everywhere in the country, children are white and blue al elementary school and white and green secondary. Each time for girls and boys is the top and bottom in white color.
Here the school to deal with in the foreground, three flags are hoisted every morning: the left (sorry it is not clear ..) a black and white flag is the flag of the state of terranganu (remember Malaysia is not divided into regions and department but by state, each state has its own premier and its own flag and certain laws only apply within the state), amid the flag of Malaysia, yellow, red, white and blue and right of the flag red and white school. Indeed Malay schools often organize sports tournaments or competitions of any kind (of art, music etc. ..) between schools and thus have a flag to represent them.
Here is a class in the whole they all look more or less and are quite similar to ours: quite large, tables and individual chairs, tables with a locker underneath to make the business bigger picture, displays (numbers, letters, timetables, rules of life, months, seasons, days of week, etc. .. but whenever anything is written in Malay and English for some disciplines such as science and mathematics are taught in Malay as well that in English), sometimes with a library reading corner by cons we found that the walls were more empty than ours, they also have courses in visual arts here, but they don not their acrochent work on the walls, they take them back home or fall into a pocket. Too bad ....
Here's a group picture or you can see the holding of girls and boys and see that some boys are a hat and not others. The white uniforms is not always perfect with some wear and a shirt or a white veil and many others more of cream or ecru. You can also see that some girls wear blue veils. Teachers in each class elect a reeve as Nepal, c is a kind of delegate, but instead be elected by the students selected by teachers according to their grades, behavior, etc.. The prefects do not even held the other to distinguish them, they are completely dressed in blue. They are appointed for three years (classes do not change from one year to the other) and are replaced only if they behave badly or have bad grades. There are two prefects per class Their role is to assist teachers in their task, so for example they help teachers prepare certain businesses, they are the ones who inspect every morning uniforms, nails and teeth of all students in the class to verify that all world is clean.
Here is another class, as they vowed the said above they are all relatively similar ...
Here is one of the few activities of visual art that we found a poster on the wall of the classes, it s origami, an activity of creating a whole bunch of shapes (boxes, animals, etc. ) in bending. Here the children have created folders, some with node butterfly folding.
A photo of the school for a bit to show you what it looks like, but not really being a space of grass between the buildings where children can play or read ...
The school in Malaysia is free and compulsory from 7 to 17 years, there are no private schools from pre-university level, by cons all schools are not open to everyone. You explained in the general section on Malaysia as he nya no equality between the Malays and other communities (Chinese and Indian), this is also valid at the school level, and all primary schools are not open to Chinese and Malay , generally only the larger schools in large cities are open to all. Some Chinese and Malay school children must make al km to school, take the bus so that when they have a school next to home. At the university level c is even worse because all the public universities that are open to the Malay and Chinese or Indian if want to go to college so they need to go into private universities, of course ... Pay By rating cons social the Malays are very careful about what there is an equality among all social classes and families who have not much money have the possibility of obtaining grants to pay for school supplies for their children (as with us: brushes , notebooks, pens etc. ..), some Children are also entitled to a free breakfast in the morning before school, or a free lunch in the canteen.
Cote education program is the same everywhere in the country because it is managed by the central government and not by that of states, the holidays are also the same everywhere and schedule of beginning and end of class. The subjects taught are not exactly the same as ours, they study literature, science, mathematics, civic education, visual arts, music and singing (they learn to play an instrument of the primary school) , sport, Malay, the English, they also have an ethics course, as well as a course on Islam and finally a course of practical life in which they learn to sew on a button, repair such a thing, they make crafts, gardening, etc. For cons ... n they not study the history and geography before the equivalent of our college. Science and mathematics are taught in Malay and English and other subjects of the college s add that bilingual education has, therefore, the Malays speak English quite well ...
the school day begins at 7:45 in the morning the children start to first online class in progress, inspect the prefects, there esnuite prayer then the children go to their class. and the day begins. Here the students have one teacher per subject, as in Nepal it is the teachers who change classrooms, students are not only in the same class but have their regular table. Each class lasts 30 minutes. In the morning there is a 30 minute break from 10:15 to 10:45, but a kind of recreation, during which the students must begin to eat (c is required) a snack that they can bring home or purchase on site (cookies, fruit ...) before they can go play. Then a halt during the 12:45 for the younger (7 to 10 years) and 13:15 for the others (10 to 12 years). The after noon everyone has class between 14h and 16h.
The schedule runs a week, the students n they study not the same material every day.
lunch children have the opportunity to either go home or eat al school. those who eat school must al eating in a room reserved for this purpose, the canteen, for the cons school does not provide food, children have a choice between bringing their lunch or go out of school and go buy the street. In Malaysia, there are food stalls everywhere in the streets, people selling donuts, kebabs, fruit, rice, cooking dishes that they serve in a box to pack .... c is therefore extremely easy to dining you find it does not cost very much. The Malaysian
going 5 days a week from Sunday to Thursday, they are for the weekend on Friday and Saturday, Friday being a holy day for Muslims. every Sunday morning in addition to the health inspection carried out by the prefects and prayer, there is a meeting of half an hour to take stock of the past week and provide any special instructions for the week ahead. Over the main bed a citation to the pupils to whom it is supposed to think. It can also speak during this time of the news (usually news of unrest, or even news in the state), or ask a student to come and read a text or making a speech (he has accused the course beforehand !).
The return to school takes place in January, the students then have a week off in March, late May, one in August and then five weeks of vacation between November and December when the monsoon (when it rains) ... So they have much less vacation than you!
Children spend all of one year to another, there is no repetition, the students are divided by age in classes that are all composed of 30 to 35 students. The students have two types of evaluation, they have exams or checks every month in each subject during the lessons and then twice in the year in middle years and late years throughout the program. Students who have difficulty in a particular matter must take additional courses which are held on Saturdays (usually we do request no children under 10 years of these courses) for 2 or 3 hours with a much smaller effective order to help students catch up. All students have homework to do at home. The organization
School is slightly different,
- years before the children do not attend school
al - 4 to 6 years children can be sent in "Kindergarten" but it is not mandatory, it looks more like our recreation centers that has our nursery schools, no goals or program to follow but the goal is still to do educational activities for children.
- 7 to 12 years, primary school children go al, there is a distinction made between the first three classes of grade 7, 8 and 9 years and those 10, 11 and 12 years, they don not have the same hourly volume.
- 13 to 17 years children are al secondary school (no college or high school but a school so unique)
- 17 years after those will want to continue studying al university.
about schools in general, as you can see the class photos, they generally have the same equipment as ours, it is the same for sports equipment or equipment used in visual arts, children must have their own crayons, etc. ciseauxc pair ... but the school provides paper, cotton, cardboard, etc. ...
Malay schools also organize trips but usually only to visit a museum or a mosque, and only 1 to 2 times per year.
The schools also organize a variety of classes but discoveries during the school holidays so they are not mandatory (There is no recreation centers here or of settlements .... c is the school that fills that role ...), the kids leave for several days, each stay having a specific theme, such stay with music music lessons and activities the morning after noon or stay with the course of English language morning, etc. ...
In Malaysia, many children are extra-curricular activities, c is very common, not very expensive and it oocupe children on Saturday after lunch or during school holidays. By cons is not the principle the same as ours, children do not take courses in a particular association, all activities are most often collected in one place: sports activities (not very common .... and it s mostly of martial arts, cricket and football), art activities (very very widespread especially drawing and painting, they are also of very talented!) and musical activities (generally more in the form of group that individual to form bands).
