摘要：AbstractSocio-economic status (SES) plays a significant role in influencing students’ achievement and school's performance. Previous studies showed comparatively that students of high SES background will perform better than students from low SES background which subsequently affects on the overall performance of their respective school. However, the relationship between these two aspects cannot be viewed in the context of the Ulu Lubai National Primary School, which is located in the remote corners of Limbang Dictrict, in Sarawak, Malaysia. Hence, the focus of this article is to investigate the fundamental efforts and factors that contribute towards driving this school to be one of the high performance schools in Malaysia. This is a case study which applies interviews, observations and document analysis in gathering data. This school is honoured with many awards at the district, national and international level as a result from the determination and commitment given by the headmaster and teachers as well as the parents and local communities. In this article, the view from the headmaster, teachers and the local community were highlighted from the perspective of their collaborative efforts and visions which relatively provides a finer insight to the previous findings on the importance of communities’ involvement to enhance the school effectiveness and excellence.
