Reshaping The Perfect Form for Form 6

Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek has announced that Form 6 classes would be rebranded while college heads will have more autonomy in selecting students to be enrolled. Would this work to help Form 6 become more accesible to people? We discussed this with Shashivarmaan Thevaraj, Program Executive at YTAR, who's also a former Form 6 student himself. And then, we heard from our listeners on what they think about Form 6, and what would make it more appealing to students.
