A new needs assessment by Fugee Org, "Striving for Education in Unreasonable Circumstances," delivers a stark analysis of the crisis facing Malaysia's estimated 59,250 refugee children. Excluded from the national system due to government policy and lack of legal status, these children rely on informal Alternative Learning Centres (ALCs).
The report reveals an alarming reality: only about 35% of registered school-age children are enrolled, a gap sustained by systemic barriers including financial hardship, security threats, and registration delays. The ALCs themselves are struggling against a chronic lack of funding, inadequate infrastructure, and a shortage of qualified teachers and materials.
The study concludes with a powerful call for coordinated action, outlining six key recommendations across four focus areas.

At Fugee School, our mission goes beyond academic education; it’s about nurturing an environment where every child feels secure, respected, and understood. We firmly believe that a child’s right to a safe space is non-negotiable.
