DIFFERENCES
EDUCATION FACTOR BETWEEN ENGLAND AND INDONESIA
INTRODUCTION
Education
is an important things in our life, without a good education a human can not be
smart than before. Nowadays, there are many miracle come from education like a
modern technology in industrial, transportation and communication sector or etc.
So, a good quality of education coming from several factor and each country
have their own rules like in England and Indonesia. In that country the
regulation of education definitely different each other, such as the system of
education which influence a child who studying in England and in Indonesia is
never same and the properties which can contribute to the ethos of schools like
a uniform is also different. In this paper I will explain the education
differences between those two country.
·
The Education System
The
education system in each country like in England and Indonesia was clearly
different. In England, British children are required by law to have an education
until they are 16 years old. Education is free for all children from 5 to 16.
Full-time education is compulsory for all children aged between 5 and 16
(inclusive) across England. This can be provided by state schools, independent
schools, or homeschooling. The school year runs from September to July and is
39 weeks long. For many areas the year is divided into six terms: (1) September
to October, (2) October to December, (3) January to February, (4) February to
March, (5) April to May and (6) June to July (Some counties in England still
follow the traditional three terms a year.)
The
dates for school terms and holidays are decided by the local authority or the
governing body of a school, or by the school itself for independent schools.
About the school holidays, the main school holidays are: Christmas- 2 weeks, Spring
- 2 weeks and Summer - 6 weeks. There are also one week holidays: end of
October, mid February and end of May
Children
normally start primary school at the age of four or five, but many schools now
have a reception year for four year olds and children normally leave at the age
of 11, moving on to secondary school (High school). British children are
required to attend school until they are 16 years old. In England, compulsory
schooling currently ends on the last Friday in June during the academic year in
which a pupil attains the age of 16. Current government proposals are to raise
the age until which students must continue to receive some form of education or
training to 18. At the age of 16, students in England, Wales and Northern
Ireland take an examination called the GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary
Education). Study of GSCE subjects begins at the start of Year 10 (age 14-15),
and final examinations are then taken at the end of Year 11 (age 15-16). In
state schools English, Mathematics, Science, Religious Education and Physical
Education are studied during Key Stage 4 (the GCSE years of school); in
England, some form of ICT and citizenship must be studied and, in Wales, Welsh
must be studied. Other subjects, chosen by the individual pupil, are also
studied.
Education stages:
Nursery Schools 3-4 years old
Primary Schools 5-11 years old
Foundation Stage - Nursery, Reception,
(Infants)
Key Stage 1 - Years 1 and 2 (Infants)
Key Stage 2
-Years 3 - 6 (Juniors)
Secondary Schools 12-18 years old
Years 7-13 (Key Stage 3, 4 & 5)
In
Indonesia, education is compulsory under Government Regulations for children
aged seven to fifteen. State (public) education is free at elementary school
level. Education is also available in fee-paying private schools, which include
religion-based schools, international schools and national-plus schools.
The
national education system in Indonesia is divided into:
Formal education
(public and private schools):
Primary

SD or elementary school (age 6 - 12)

Equivalency
Education for elementary and high school education levels (Kelompok Belajar Paket A, B, C)
There
is no charge for public schooling from Elementary School (SD) Grade 1 to Junior
High School (SMP) Grade 3. However, parents must supply books, stationery,
uniform and additional funds for school outings. Children are grouped and stay
in the classrooms during school hours. Teachers in turn visit the classrooms
following the class schedule. This system applies to elementary and high school
levels.

The School Uniform
In
my opinion the school uniform is one of the most important things in education,
there are many kind of uniform school, and it is the differences between school
uniform in England and Indonesia.
The school uniform in England
School
uniforms in England were first introduced on a large scale during the reign of
King Henry VIII. The uniforms of the time were referred as
"bluecoats", as they consisted of long trench-coat-style jackets dyed
blue. Blue was the cheapest available dye and showed humility amongst all
children. The first school to introduce this uniform was Christ's Hospital and
it is the oldest uniform of any school. Today, the Government believes that
school uniforms play a valuable role in contributing to the ethos of schools:
The Department for Children, Schools and Families strongly encourages schools
to have a uniform as it can instil pride; support positive behaviour and discipline;
encourage identity with, and support for, school ethos; ensure pupils of all
races and backgrounds feel welcome; protect children from social pressures to
dress in a particular way; nurture cohesion and promote good relations between
different groups of pupils. For boys they used long grey or black trousers
(shorts may be worn in the Summer), white shirt, School tie (optional in most
primary schools), jumper or sweater with the school logo on. The colour is the
choice of the schools and use black shoes. For the girls they us as above or girls
may wear skirts and during the summer term girls often wear summer school
dresses.
The school uniform in Indonesia
A
school uniform is an outfit—a set of standardized clothes—worn primarily for an
educational institution. They are common in primary and secondary schools in
various countries (see list of countries below). When used, they form the basis
of a school's dress code. Traditionally school uniforms have been largely
subdued and professional.[citation needed] Boys' uniforms often consist of dark
short or long trousers and light-colored shirt, often with a tie. Girls'
uniforms vary greatly between countries and schooling systems, but typically
consist of a dress or a blouse worn either with a skirt or culottes or under a
pinafore; some countries allow girls to wear trousers. The use of a blazer or
suit-like jacket for either gender is also fairly common, especially in
countries with relatively cold weather. While some countries have school
uniforms that are essentially standard in all schools using it, others have
each school with an individual uniform, varying in and often making use of
badges.
CONCLUSION
In short, each country have their
own rules education. the rules in England and Indonesia definitely different
but they have their own way to make their teenagers become smart with studied
like, the rule about the education system and rules about the uniform what
should they used.
