The Malaysian government has played a significant role in promoting the growth and success of the primary school industry.

Another key driver of growth in the industry has been the increasing demand for education. Parents are increasingly recognizing the importance of education in their children's future, and this has led to an increase in enrollments in primary schools across the country. Additionally, the industry has witnessed a significant shift towards a more diversified curriculum, with an increasing number of primary schools offering courses in fields such as technology, entrepreneurship, and creative arts. This shift reflects the changing demands of the job market and the need for graduates with skills that are relevant to the needs of the economy.
