Summary: | Organisational survival refers to how long an organisation can remain afloat without having to cease operations, either temporarily or permanently. The number of private tahfiz schools (PTS) is growing in Malaysia. However, not much is known regarding the factors that affect survival of these PTS, whereas the survival of these PTS would ensure the continuity of Quranic education. Thus, the aim of this study is to investigate the factors that lead to the survival of PTS in Malaysia using Stakeholder Theory. Effective governance, availability of infrastructure and facilities, teaching and learning system, financial assistance, parental involvement, regulatory requirement, and community participation are the factors that may influence the survival of PTS. PLS SEM is used in the data analysis. By using stratified random sampling techniques, 84 sample of usable questionnaire were collected among owners of PTS in two states of Malaysia, Selangor and Johor. The result shows that the survival of private tahfiz schools in Malaysia can be intensified by having systematic teaching and learning, conducive relationship and involvement with the community, and adhering to the rules and regulations created by the regulators. Regulatory requirement gave a medium effect on survival. Therefore, PTS can take this into consideration by focusing more on the regulatory requirement. This study is essential to the education field, particularly tahfiz education, because it adds to the body of literature related to the survival of PTS in achieving their objective of producing excellent huffaz. As such, PTS can become catalyst and partner in the government effort to assure education quality and create an international tahfiz education brand for Malaysia. |
