“No one should be left out”, the exact intonation by the Deputy Education Minister Chong Sin Woon. The Frog Classroom transformation at SMK Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi is even more meaningful for this time around as the classroom catered to students with special needs and learning disabilities.

Express Rail Link Sdn Bhd (ERL) together with its subsidiary; the ERL Maintenance Support Sdn Bhd (E-MAS) continued their commitment with YTL Foundation to take on the Frog Classroom makeover.

The National Special Needs Education system under the Education Ministry focused more on the needs and the importance of these students and with the initiative to redefine the conventional classroom by the YTL Foundation, the Frog Classroom is set to be a transformational 21st century learning space.

The classroom comes with ramps for wheelchair accessibility and soft board with positive messages to encourage the students that they are capable of great things. Yoga mats, a gym ball and a mini foosball table allow the students to enhance their motor skills while having fun in the classroom.
A conducive, fun and interactive learning environment for both teachers and students will achieve more through the collaborative learning. The students of SMK Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi would shape the country’ future and the Frog Classroom will work as an avenue to drive them positively in the right and dignifying direction.

For that to happen, schools need better infrastructure – better classrooms, proper teaching equipment and access to high speed internet”.

YB P. Kamalanathan also encouraged more corporate organisations to be involved in the betterment of the education in the country. He hoped to see more participation from the corporate sector in the Frog Classroom Makeover Project so that more schools, especially in the rural areas to have the opportunity to experience a Frog Classroom and fully benefited from the Frog VLE in a conducive learning environment.
