Method & notes
The 2025 SSDM/KPM figure is useful current context, but it is not the same statistical series as PDRM's student index-crime cases.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSHow the numbers were calculated
PulseKita reproduces KPM's 2025 school-level totals from its February 2026 written Parliamentary reply. This is a one-year SSDM/KPM administrative snapshot and is intentionally kept separate from PDRM's index-crime series.
- KPM recorded 457 cases in primary schools and 3,113 in secondary schools, for 3,570 criminal-misconduct records in 2025.
- These are KPM school disciplinary/administrative records under the 'salah laku jenayah' category; they are not presented as police reports, arrests, charges or convictions.
- Do not append this 2025 figure to the PDRM 2019–2023 series because the definitions and recording systems differ.
