I have a hard time finding for a proper pre-school for my daughter. I would love to be informed of any events on home schooling.

I can even offer my place at my activities centre to let mothers or parents get together to teach our kids.

However, after browsing a few websites today, I’ve read that we Malaysian parents have to apply to the MOE for exemptions and there certain conditions to be met. It is apparently mandatory for our kids to attend school – in the traditional sense – unless we fulfill those requirements.

I would like some feedback and advice if I don’t fall under those categories – learning disabilities or residence requirements. The only reason why I want to homeschool is my lack of trust in the Malaysian School system, syllabus and policies. That and the tendencies for them to treat kids as political pawns and as guinea pigs.

Indeed as KV says, the one sure way to avoid being victimised by policies like this is to take back our kids and take charge of their education ourselves.
