For\nthe second phase, the quota for the SMA affirmative pathway includes 13\npercent for underprivileged families, 5 percent for children of\nlabourers from underprivileged families, 5 percent for persons with\ndisabilities, and 7 percent for academic achievement from\nunderprivileged families.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the SMK affirmative pathway quota includes 7 percent for\nunderprivileged families, 5 percent for children of labourers from\nunderprivileged families, and 3 percent for persons with disabilities.\nThe mutation pathway consists of 2 percent for children of teachers and\neducation staff, and 3 percent for mutation due to parental or guardian\nwork assignments. The achievement pathway from competitions is divided\ninto 3 percent for non-academic achievements and 2 percent for academic\nachievements, with quotas prepared for each pathway.<\/p>\n
The East Java Education Office recorded that out of a total of\n213,144 SPMB phase 1 domicile pathway applicants, 54,056 prospective\nstudents were declared successful. The breakdown includes 40,786\nprospective students accepted at state senior high schools (SMA Negeri)\nand 13,270 accepted at state vocational high schools (SMK Negeri). The\ntotal number of phase 1 registrants was 111,144 for SMA and 101,922 for\nSMK.<\/p>\n

As an effort to improve future academic scores, the office also\nemphasised the importance of utilising digital learning.
