Education
Children attend schooling in various school but mostly prefer to study in the nearby primary and secondary schools. There is no bus or any means of transportation service provided for the school children because traditionally, parents or family members will send their children to the schools themselves, usually early morning and the afternoon . Some of the school children even prefer to walk and cycle to their schools because it is just across the street. A pedestrian bridge was built to join Kampung Kopisan Baru and Kampung Tersusun Kampung Pulai to ease the travel between these two neighborhood, therefore people don't have to risk their lives crossing the busy Jalan Gopeng.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
—Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The Cairo conference ... is about a complicated web of education and employment, consumption and poverty, development and health care. It is also about whether governments will follow where women have so clearly led them, toward safe, simple and reliable choices in family planning. While Cairo crackles with conflict, in the homes of the world the orthodoxies have been duly heard, and roundly ignored.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
