Some hard facts on how bad the state of Indonesian education is:
An OECD survey (2004, as cited in World Bank report 2006) revealed that “[Indonesian students’] performance … signals serious deficiencies in students’ ability to use reading as a tool for acquisition of knowledge and skills in other areas” (World Bank, 2006: 5).
Another statistics from the Indonesian Ministry of National Education (2004) uncovered that “34% of elementary school teachers, 71.2% of junior high school teachers, 46.6% of high school teachers, and 33.4% of vocational school teachers being surveyed were incompetent to teach” (as cited in Sampoerna Foundation, 2005: 2).
More to come.
