        "content": "<p>The stages of the New Student Admission System (SPMB) for SMA and SMK\nNegeri levels are entering a crucial phase as the deadline for data\nverification and validation approaches. Prospective students and parents\nare requested to ensure that all data entered on the registration\nwebsite is complete.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I urge all prospective students and parents to immediately ensure\nthat all required documents have been correctly verified before entering\nthe registration stages for each respective track,\u2019 said the Governor of\nEast Java, Khofifah Indar Parawansa, in Surabaya on Sunday (7\/6).<\/p>\n<p>The Governor noted that verification and validation processes in\nseveral schools across Surabaya, Gresik, Ngawi, and Madiun are\nproceeding well. This stage is vital to ensure that online data matches\nthe physical hardcopy documents held by students, allowing the selection\nprocess to remain fair, transparent, and accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Khofifah explained that the verification and validation stage serves\nas the foundation for ensuring the accuracy of the digital input against\noriginal documents. She emphasised that accuracy and precision must be\nmaintained so that all participants have an equal opportunity in the\nselection process.<\/p>\n<p>According to the official schedule for the East Java SPMB 2026\/2027\nacademic year, the independent collection of PINs by prospective\nstudents continues until 9 June 2026, while the verification and\nvalidation of data and documents is scheduled to conclude on 10 June\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>Khofifah also reminded the public to closely monitor all established\nschedules and regulations to avoid obstacles during the registration\nprocess. \u2018Ensure all documents are verified and valid so that the\nregistration process for each track can proceed smoothly,\u2019 she\nadvised.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Khofifah emphasised that the East Java SPMB system has\nbeen designed to be open, allowing the public to monitor every stage and\nthe final selection results transparently. \u2018The public will be able to\nsee openly how the selection process is conducted. Report card scores\ncarry a weight of 60%, while the Academic Ability Test (TKA) accounts\nfor 40%. All components are monitorable, allowing the public to see the\nentire process,\u2019 she stated.<\/p>\n<p>In related news, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed\nthat 28% of new student admission processes are still marred by illegal\nlevies. Circular Letter Number 7 of 202lar was issued to prevent\ncorruption in schools. The SPMB system is now integrated with the \u2018Cek\nIn Warga\u2019 database, allowing the government to verify residential\naddresses listed in identity documents. Through this system, citizens no\nlonger need to visit offices physically just to obtain an SPMB queue\nnumber.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the Padang City Government, through the Department of\nEducation and Culture, has officially set the SPMB schedule for the\n2026\/2027 academic year, while the Banyumas Regency Government in\nCentral Java has declared its readiness for the SMP-level SPMB\nimplementation for the same period.<\/p>",
