Primary Education
In Indonesia education is
centrally controlled by the ministry of national education. 6 years in primary
school and 3 years in junior high school are compulsory. The primary phase
follows on after optional pre-school playgroups that may commence in a child’s
third year. Most elementary schools are government controlled. Some offer
accelerated programs that compress the phase to 5 years. As Islamic education system
operates in parallel to this.
Middle Education
Junior high school offers
a bridge between the gentler pace of the elementary phase, and the challenges
of senior high school that may follow. It also assists educators to determine a
possible future direction for their students. The Islamic education system
continues to provide an alternative.
Secondary Education
There are two different
kinds of Indonesian high schools providing two streams of education for those
who choose to optionally enrol. One of these is aimed at those who intend to go
on to university. The other is for those who plan to find jobs right away.
Other young people choose the Islamic alternative.
Vocational Education
Vocational training is
mainly provided by private training colleges and initiatives by donor
countries. Unfortunately this continues to occur mainly in the cities. This
continues to condemn most of the rural poor to a life of drudgery and manual
labor.
Tertiary Education
There are 4 kinds of tertiary education institutions in
Indonesia, namely polytechnics, academies, institutes and universities. Some of
these are state controlled, some are religiously affiliated and some are
privately funded.
The
oldest is the University of Indonesia founded in 1947. It enjoys a prestigious
local reputation and was ranked among the top 50 in Asia in May 2011.
