91% murid Malaysia kata guru bantu pembelajaran, jauh atas purata OECD

Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek emphasized the continued importance of teachers, especially when students face difficulties mastering a subject. According to the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa) 2025, 91% of Malaysian students said their teachers help them learn, compared to the OECD average of 76%. The minister noted that the Pisa 2025 findings show Malaysian students feel constant guidance and support from their teachers throughout the learning process.

She added, "This result demonstrates that Malaysian students feel strong support from their teachers. Let us give our teachers a boost." The data is significant as it indicates that Malaysian teachers have educated and guided our children with a high spirit, ihsan, kindness, and passion. The results also show that 87% of students said their teachers continue teaching until they fully understand a topic, compared to the OECD average of 66%.

Additionally, 86% of students said teachers provide extra help when needed, surpassing the OECD average of 73%. Furthermore, 83% of students felt they had the opportunity to express their opinions in class, compared to the OECD average of 70%, while 80% said teachers showed interest in their learning, compared to 69% in OECD countries.

Fadhlina noted that Pisa 2025 also showed Malaysia's education system is in a positive position, as student performance is not largely determined by the differences in schools they attend. She added, "This indicates opportunities for achieving success in education are not confined to specific schools." The main Pisa 2025 study was conducted from April 22 to May 30, 2025, involving 7,624 students aged 15 from 157 schools and educational institutions across the country, including private institutions.
