Education System

The educational system in Malaysia is government responsible. Kids begin with Pre-School and end with going to a university.
The primary school system is lasts for six years, and is mandatory for kids ages 7-12. Year 1  to Year 3 at a primary school are called "Level One", and Year 4 to Year 6 are called "Level Two." Before attending secondary school, kids must take a Primary School Achievement Test and are tested in math, science, English, and written Malay.
Secondary school lasts for 5 years. The first 3 years are considered "lower secondary," and the last 2 years are considered "upper secondary."
Post-Secondary is an education pursued by students that graduated from secondary school and would like to enter a university, (which is NOT government responsible.) Students go through 1 or 2 years of preparation for entering a university, and must take a test beforehand (which is required.)
