Wellbeing in Schools, Strengthened Across Five Pillars
01 / Sekolah Angkat MADANI
More than
classroom learning
A stronger school experience is shaped by more than classroom learning alone. Through Sekolah Angkat MADANI, Yayasan Sime Darby supports schools as spaces where students and teachers can learn, connect, and grow in a more encouraging environment. Across these schools, employees and partners also volunteer on the ground, extending support through education, sports, environmental awareness, community and health initiatives, and arts and cultural exposure. Together, these efforts strengthen school communities through improvements that support learning, student participation, and day to day wellbeing.
Across the schools supported under the programme, these improvements take different forms. In some schools, the focus has been on strengthening classroom learning and widening access to better teaching tools and student opportunities. In others, support has helped create more welcoming spaces for students to gather, collaborate, and engage beyond formal lessons. Together, these efforts reflect a broader view of school wellbeing, one that recognises the value of supportive environments in shaping confidence, motivation, and participation.
At Kolej Vokasional Sungai Buloh, the establishment of Anjung Aspirasi Sime UMW has introduced a dedicated student space for learning, collaboration, and interaction beyond the classroom, contributing to a more organised, welcoming, and student-friendly campus environment.
At SK Ladang Dublin, support has contributed to a more interactive learning environment through digital tools and STEM exposure, while reinforcing the school’s wider efforts to support students who need additional help in reading.
02 / Voices of impact
“Each school has its own priorities and challenges. Support that addresses real needs on the ground enables schools to better serve their students and teachers, while recognising that improvement is not one-size-fits-all”
“A supportive school environment gives students room to learn, collaborate, and grow with confidence beyond the classroom,”
“Access to better learning tools and wider exposure helps the students participate more actively and see new possibilities for themselves, pointing to stronger classroom engagement, robotics participation, and continued progress in reading support,”
03 / Sustainable development
Our SDG connections
04 / Looking ahead
Stronger school communities
Together, these examples point to a shared goal across the programme: helping schools become stronger environments for learning, confidence, and student development.
Through Sekolah Angkat MADANI, schools are receiving more than upgrades to spaces and facilities. They are gaining stronger foundations for participation, confidence, and growth, reflecting a wider effort to support school communities today while preparing students more fully for the future.
