THE Education Ministry (MOE) is looking into the recommendations put forward by the special committee to address sexual harassment and bullying in schools.

Its minister, Fadhlina Sidek, said she was confident that the recommendations and proposals from the committee could improve student safety within the school ecosystem.

“I believe we are moving towards a safe ecosystem and the recommendations will facilitate access for children to get help and protect themselves from bullying and sexual harassment.

“In addition, the recommendations will be able to strengthen child protection policies, ensuring their safety at school,” she told reporters after the launch of the 3S (Safer Mind, Safer School, Safer Future) pilot project at the Seberang Perai Selatan district education office today

She said the MOE will fine-tune the recommendations of the committee to ensure that children in schools are safer. – Bernama, March 12, 2023.
