In spite of English being regarded as the second most
important language in Malaysia, it is still treated as a
foreign language inevitably. The recently introduced Dual
Language Progamme (henceforth DLP) which uses English as
the medium of instruction in teaching Mathematics and
Science is alleged to be a reflection of the less
successful English for teaching Mathematics and Science
policy (hereafter PPSMI). Therefore, this paper aims to
examine the perceptions of pre-service teachers towards
the use of English in teaching Mathematics and Science
and establish its connections with the DLP. Data were
collected through questionnaire which involved 50
respondents. Findings showed that the respondents held
unfavourable perceptions of the PPSMI policy which in
turn justified the emergence of the DLP. Implications of
the study and suggestions for future research are also
discussed.
