Abstract

Pelaksanaan pengajaran Sains dan Matematik dalam Bahasa Inggeris (PPSMI) merupakan satu perubahan dasar oleh Kementerian Pelajaran. Tujuannya adalah untuk memastikan generasi akan datang dapat dilengkap dengan pengetahuan saintifif dan teknologi yang seiring dengan abad ke-21 yang bersifat global. Artikel ini berusaha untuk mempertengahkan satu kajian kes yang khas tentang pelaksanaan PPSMI di sebuah sekolah menengah di Kuching, Sarawak. Kajian ini telah dijalankan secara kualitatif, melibatkan pelajar Tingkatan Satu, guru Sains dan Matematik Tingkatan Satu dan pentadbir sekolah. Data telah dikumpulkan melalui pemerhatian, temuduga dun analisis dokumen. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa sekolah tersebut telah merancang dan melaksanakan struktur pengurusan, sistem sokongan dan sistem pemantauan dalam memastikan kejayaan dan keberkesanan pelaksanaan pengajaran Sains dan Matematik dalam Bahasa Inggeris. Perancangan yang teliti dan kesungguhan dalam menjayakan pelaksanaan PPSMI di sekolah ini harus dijadikan model oleh sekolah-sekolah lain.
