Main Report : Review of a Decade of Gender Mainstreaming in Education in Indonesia
Ministry of National Development Planning / National Development Planning Agency | June 2013
Abstract
Indonesia has made impressive improvements in education over the last decade and is on track to
meeting Millennium Development Goals 2 and 3 (universal primary education and gender parity). The
country has a national net primary (years 1 to 6) enrolment rate of 94.7 percent with equal enrolment
for girls and boys.1 GOI recognises that it has not yet achieved its national ‘Education for All’ target,
aiming to give all boys and girls nine years of education and reach a 67.6 percent net enrolment in
junior secondary school (years 7 to 9).2 GOI acknowledges that access to education does not guarantee
education outcomes. The quality of education varies across the country. Furthermore, as a whole, the
quality of education in Indonesia is of a lower standard than in other Asian middle-income countries.
