This research explores the undocumented immigrant children’s education and the potential of skillsbased curriculum module of the localized community. The current study seeks to analyse the potential of this curriculum module that is based on local community’s skill for the undocumented immigrant children in Sabah. For that purpose, interviews were conducted with 12 individuals who are of M13 card holders, alternative education instructors, volunteers, local university lecturers, National Security Council’s officer, Educational Planning and Research Division’s officer of Ministry of Education and also the NGO’s. The findings indicated that the development of curriculum module based on the local community’s skills for undocumented immigrant children needs to be developed in order to provide educational for all. Also, the development of this module will help to ensure that no children is left behind from the mainstream education, and to help them acquire relevant skills for living.
