School is one of the phases of life that every child will go through in the world, including in Indonesia. The right to education and basic knowledge should be given to them. The goal is for them to be able to survive in the world and live their future lives independently. Therefore, every parent should choose the best education.

In Indonesia, many educational institutions have been built to fulfill these basic rights, and have even spread throughout the country. The goal is that children can study anywhere, both in formal and formal educational institutions. What are some examples of education in Indonesia? Here are some examples that you can consider.


Examples of Education in Indonesia

1. Formal Education

Formal educators in Indonesia are provided for children from an early age to adulthood. For children who are still at an early age, they study at an institution known as early childhood education (PAUD). In this educational example, children begin to be introduced to the education system and learn through fun playing.

They are introduced to formal education in a fun way so that they have an interest in education from an early age so that they have a love for going to school. After getting education at the PAUD level, these children then enter kindergarten (TK). In this place, the learning system begins to increase its scientific level.

However, at this kindergarten level, children are still given a bigger portion to play while learning. When they have completed this level, they can enter elementary school (SD), junior high school (SMP), then high school (SMA). Starting from the elementary to high school levels, this is the basic compulsory education that Indonesian children must undergo.

Teenagers who have graduated from high school level are starting to be given the freedom to be able to choose to continue to college or work, depending on their wishes and aspirations. To enter higher education, the government and the private sector make it easy by providing scholarships so that children from underprivileged families still have the opportunity to continue their education.


2. Non-Formal Education

Not only formal, we also recognize non-formal education that is provided to enrich children's knowledge. An example of this non-formal education, for example, is the Al-Qur'an educational garden or TPQ. In this place, children can learn religious knowledge from the basics until they understand the contents of the Al-Quran and other knowledge of Islam.

Another example of non-formal education is coursework institutions. Currently, there are many course institutions in Indonesia, ranging from tutoring that supports students' academic abilities in schools to course institutions that teach various skills, such as cooking, cutting hair, sewing, dismantling machines, and so on.
It should be noted that education is not only intended for children in general, but also for those with special needs and special abilities and talents. Basically, the abilities of children are different. Therefore, parents must be able to see it carefully so that they can develop according to the abilities of the child.


One example of education that pays close attention to the abilities and talents of children so that they can develop properly is inclusive schools. In this school, every student will be given the opportunity to develop things they like to become experts in their fields. So that, at the time of the ulcer, they will have special skills.
For this reason, parents need to consider inclusive schools for the development of their children's special talents. As a first step, of course parents need to find more information about this school. That way, parents have got the right insight and understanding when they want to choose a school for their child.
