As we know here in Indonesia, students take about 12-14 years before they go to college. There are at least 4 grades before they go to college. It is kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school and senior high school. Indonesian system is almost the same like education system in United States while in United States students spend their first two years at an infant school, then the next four at a primary school and after that they start a secondary school before they take an examinations called GCSEs. In Indonesia students who graduated from senior high school can continue their education level by take the college form. It takes about 3,5 years or more depends on how diligent the student is.
According to me, the education system in Indonesia is much more complicated than in United States or United Kingdom. Besides, the cost of taking an education in here is still expensive. That’s why the rates of children who don’t go to school for an education are still high also. Poor people who can’t afford to pay for their children’s education payment can’t get facilities like school for free or something like that. And that fact should be seen and concerned by the government because the more children that can’t get an education in school, the less qualities that Indonesia get for the education point of view. I hope there will be more scholarships for the poor people and more interesting system for the education so Indonesia can raise the quality of their youth and also for the other part such as economic, social and politic.
