Minister Fadhlina Sidek said SBJK provided children who were facing social problems, school dropouts and orphans as well as those without documents, with better access to education.
“We will expand this school concept to other states such as Sabah and Sarawak that have issues like this, especially involving undocumented children and vulnerable groups,” she told reporters after an event at SBJK here.
Earlier, Fadhlina handed over a replica of a key to SBJK senior administrative assistant Zafrol Abdullah in a symbolic gesture of opening the school’s phase one academic building.
A total of RM21 million has been allocated for the two phases of the school’s development, with RM13 million to build the academic building in phase one and RM8 million to develop dormitories under phase two, she added.
