Education Development Targets in Indonesia in 2045
Education plays an important role in the development of a nation, and Indonesia, as a country that continues to develop, faces challenges to improve the education level of its people.
In 2045, Indonesia has set educational development targets with the main aim of creating superior, characterful and competitive Human Resources (HR). Various educational development indicators have been established as benchmarks for success in achieving these targets.
One of the key indicators of Indonesia’s educational development in 2045 is an increase in the average Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) score. In 2018, reading, math, and science scores were 371, 379, and 396, respectively.
To achieve the target, it is hoped that the reading score will increase to 485, the mathematics score will be 490, and the science score will be 487 by 2045. This increase reflects Indonesia’s commitment to improving the overall quality of education.
Indonesia has also set a target to extend the average length of schooling (RLS) for residents aged 15 years and over from 9.08 years in 2022 to 12 years in 2045.
In addition, Expected Years of Schooling (HLS) is expected to increase from 13.10 years in 2022 to 14.81 years. This increase reflects the government’s efforts to provide better access and quality of education for the entire community.
As a step towards quality and competitive human resources, Indonesia is targeting an increase in the Higher Education Gross Enrollment Rate (APK) from 31.16 in 2022 to 60.00 in 2045.
This reflects the drive to increase access to higher education for young people, so that more individuals have the opportunity to develop their potential.
In line with the aim of creating human resources that can compete at the global level, Indonesia has also set a target to increase the percentage of workers with secondary and higher education graduates who work in the field of secondary and higher skills. It is expected that this percentage will increase from 57.53 percent in 2022 to 75.00 percent in 2045, showing the link between education and employment.
