Education Plan 2026-2035 on Jan 20, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the Learning Matrix would  \nbe introduced.  \nYear Four pupils will sit for the MPT4 in October, covering six subjects: Bahasa Melayu (BM), Bahasa Inggeris, Sains, Matematik, Bahasa Cina (SJKC) and Bahasa Tamil (SJKT). For Form Three students taking the MPTg3 next year, History will also be assessed, whilE, Bahasa Cina and Bahasa Tamil arel optional subjects (see infographic) .  \nEducation Minister Datuk Seri Fadhlina Sidek also said the assessments would be administered by the LP instead of schools to instil public confidence.  \nElaborating on the Education Ministry's intention behind the MPT4, Ab Aziz said  \nr  \nschools would have more time to identify ~~and ad~~dress learning gaps before pupils move on to secondary education.  \n''The MPT4 would help teachers pinpoint where pupils are struggling and tailor interventions to address those weaknesses during Years Five and Six,\" he told StarEdu.  \nHe added that implementation ·of the MPT4 is grounded in the assessment for learning concept, aiming to identify pupils' mastery levels so that continuous intervention and targeted support can be carried out more effectively.  \n\"Through this approach, teachers, schools and parents gain information that helps pupils strengthen their learning and ensures they are better prepared to advance to the next level of education,\" he said.  \nThis, he noted, would allow the formal curriculum to continue while pupils receive additional support based on their identified learning needs.  \nComplementing UASA  \nAb Aziz stressed that pupils would not need special preparation for the MPT4.  \nHe said the assessment is based on learning pupils have already gone through from Year One to Four, and does not introduce material outsid.e the scope of classroom teaching and learning.  \n\"Pupils sitting for this assessment should understand that they are not facing a novel or unfamiliar form of assess-  \nTARIKH : 4 OKTOBER 2026 (AHAD) BERITA HARIAN c:J UTUSAN M'SIA  \nWhat the Leaming Matrix is not  \n• A replacement fortheUPSR or PT3 examinations  \n• A determinant of admission to specific schools  \n• A means of comparing student, school, PPD or JPN performance  \nment.  \n\"The process is similar to the annual Academic Session Final Test (UASA) pupils are already familiar with, although the MPT4 uses nationally standardised instruments developed by the LP rather than assessments prepared independently by individual s􀁰hools,\" he  \nsaid.  \nClarifying further, he said the MPT4 isnot a replacement for the U","cbCaibP1lUSz5cxS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibP1lUSz5cxS","pdf",504137,"English","# What the Learning Matrix is not\n## Not a replacement for UPSR or PT3\n## Not a determinant of admission\n## Not for comparing performance\n# What is the Learning Matrix?\n## Purpose and scope","[{\"question\":\"What is the Year Four Learning Matrix (MPT4) meant to do?\",\"answer\":\"MPT4 aims to ensure primary-level learning issues are addressed by the end of Year Six by identifying learning gaps early for targeted support during Years Five and Six.\"},{\"question\":\"Does MPT4 replace UPSR, PT3, or UASA?\",\"answer\":\"No. The document stresses MPT4 is not a replacement for UPSR or PT3, and it is also not a replacement for UASA.
