The Biasiswa Perguruan Persekutuan (ISMP) is a full government scholarship awarded by the Ministry of Education Malaysia (KPM) for students who are training to become teachers in Malaysian national schools. It is one of the most straightforward government scholarship pathways in Malaysia — the scholarship is tied directly to enrollment in teacher education programmes at Institut Pendidikan Guru (IPG) or university-based Bachelor of Education programmes at public universities. Recipients of the KPM teaching scholarship receive full tuition coverage, a monthly living allowance, and are placed as government-employed teachers upon graduation, typically with a posting order to a national school. The trade-off: you are committing to a government teaching career, and the bond period means you will serve as a teacher for a number of years after graduation. For students who genuinely want to teach in Malaysia's national schools, this is one of the most secure scholarship pathways — you graduate employed, with a government pension scheme, and with full scholarship coverage for your degree. MyScholar lists the KPM teaching scholarship alongside other government-bonded scholarship options.
