As one of the most extensive education system in the world, Indonesia has achieved significant progress to improve the educational outcomes in the last two decades. The government has managed to increase school access, funding and high rate of school enrollment that in line with the government’s policy on 12 years of compulsory education. Indonesia, as similar to many other developing countries, has to deal with a significant challenge to move beyond improving access to education and moving towards achieving a high-quality education.

Despite the rapid progress in many areas fulfilled in recent decades, the challenges are still there.
