TV Pendidikan (English: Educational TV), also abbreviated as TVP (known as DidikTV KPM under Media Prima Berhad) is a Malaysian educational television network owned, produced and operated by the Educational Technology and Resources Division, Ministry of Education. The network airs educational programming for various school subjects.[1] The network's affiliates has been changed several times, beginning with RTM (1972–1999), Astro (2000–2006), and TV9 (2007–2008), prior to 2020 relaunch.
In October 2018, the then-Education Minister Maszlee Malik announced that TV Pendidikan would be relaunched after years of long absence.[2][3] The move persisted even with the change in Malaysian administration as the Ministry plans to take over most of the ntv7's timeslot under a rebrand as DidikTV KPM on 17 February 2021.[4]
