Abstract
This article explains the role and participation of the teaching staff
from alternative education centres in Malaysia. Statistics record the
ever-increasing number of Rohingya Muslims in Malaysia. Thus,
non-governmental organisations (NGO) have taken the initiative to
establish alternative education centres, appointing volunteers as
teaching staff. Studies found the NGO-appointed teaching staff
play a comprehensive role in developing human capital among the
risk community 1
, such as the Rohingya Muslims, who have been
in Malaysia since 1995. Four categories of NGOs with different
backgrounds worked to rescue this risk community with the help of
volunteer teaching staff. The teaching staff have introduced several
variations and approaches to establish alternative education centres,
and these variations are explored for the first time in this article.
Based on this research, alternative methods and continuity is
necessary to prevent education dropouts, in line with the moral
development of a civilised society. The teaching staff are a key
driving element to the importance of education focussed on the
Rohingya Muslims. This article concludes that education scholars
and policy makers must formulate education methods and
variations according to academic and practical results
