Abstract: The current study aims to test the role of implementing the Flexibility in Pedagogies Strategy in Malaysian public schools on the continuity of education during the Covid-19 crisis. Public secondary schools in the state of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia are considered to be the target study population, which number 113 schools in the state of Kuala Lumpur. The study sample included 186 principals and administrative employees in these schools. A Quantitative Survey Questionnaire will be used to collect data, so that the research questionnaire measures the independent variable ( The strategy of flexibility of teaching methods) and the dependent variable, (continuity of education). Flexible teaching methods have a statistically significant impact on the continuity of education in Malaysian public secondary schools. The results also indicate the positive direction of this relationship, that is, the application of the strategy of flexibility of teaching methods is directly proportional to the continuity of secondary school education. The greater the degree of application of the strategy of flexibility of teaching methods, the greater the probability of continuity of school education, and vice versa.
