- Take note of the completion of the Smart School Pilot Project.
- Affirm the Smart School concept as the basis for all technology initiatives in education.
- Agree to the roll-out of the Smart School.
- Agree that the Ministry of Education's Smart School Steering Committee shall develop and recommend an optimal roll-out model with a phased implementation approach to the MSC Malaysia Implementation Council chaired by the Prime Minister, and the Cabinet.
- The Flagship Coordination Committee suggested that the Ministry of Education prepare a proposal for the roll-out with the following considerations:
- Take into account all existing projects involving ICT, such as the Teaching of Science and Mathematics in English, and the School Computerisation Project, the national broadband strategy.
- Focus attention on the Smart School Project, and review all other "ambitious" projects, especially those involving universities.
- Develop a roll-out model that emphasises student learning
- Consider various funding options, including full Government funding, partial Government funding, private sector funding, deferred payment on the part of the Government.
- Be ready to present the proposal to the MSC Malaysia Implementation Council at their next meeting, probably in April 2003.
- The Flagship Coordination Committee advised the Ministry to capitalise on the provision of internet access to schools under the Ministry of Energy, Communications, and Multimedia's broadband roll-out strategy.
