Wr.Wb.
Firstly, I would like to say thank you very much for the MC and juries who have
given me
opportunity to deliver this English speech.
Ladies and Gentlemen;
It is a great gaji for me to stand here and give a brief speech entitled
“Formal Education
in Indonesia”
Brothers and Sisters;
Education system in our country is divided into two major parts, they are
formal and
non-formal. A formal education is divided into three levels: primary, secondary
and
tertiary education. While non-formal education is carried out for the learners
who get
difficulties to meet the requirements in formal education. An example of
non-formal
education is PLS (Pendidikan Luar Sekolah). Both formal and non-formal
education aim
at establishing the education process in our country.
Ladies and
Gentlemen;
As I have stated previously, formal education involves three levels: primary,
secondary
and tertiary education. Before entering primary or elementary school, children
in our
country usually have attended kindergarten, or known as Taman Kanak-kanak. But
this
education is not compulsory for Indonesian citizens, as the aim of this is just
to prepare
them for primary school.
Children
ages 7–12 attend primary education at Elementary School or Sekolah Dasar.
This level of education is compulsory for all Indonesian citizens. Similar to
education
systems in the U.S. and Australia, students must study for six years to
complete this level.
Some schools offer an accelerated learning program, where students who perform
well
can finish elementary school in five years.
The next level is secondary education. After graduating from elementary school,
students
attend Middle School or Junior High School (Sekolah Menengah Pertama) for three
years
from the age of 13-15. After three years of schooling and graduation, students
may move
on to Senior High School. In Indonesia, this school is basically divided into
two kinds:
SMA (Sekolah Menengah Atas) and Sekolah Menengah kejuruan (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan). Sekolah Menengan Atas is
different with Sekolah Menengah kejuruan in their studies. The students at Sekolah Menengan Atas are prepared to advance
to
tertiary education or university, while students of Sekolah Menengah kejuruan as a vocational school
are
prepared to be ready to work after finishing their school without going to
university/college.
The last level of education in our country is tertiary education. Students who
have
graduated from senior high school may attend to university or academy. They can
choose
any kinds of university or academy based on their interests or scopes of
knowledge, for
example majoring in English, Mathematics, or teacher pelatihan university.
Ladies and
Gentlemen;
Brothers and Sisters;
I think that’s all my speech. I hope my brief description on the formal
education in our
country will be useful for us.
Finally, I would like to say sorry if there are mistakes in my speech words.
Thank you very much for your attention.
Wassalamu’alaikum Wr.Wb.
