This initiative, prioritising areas without public schools, aims to enhance equitable access to quality education, with selected schools meeting strict criteria including accreditation and full grade offerings. By subsidising private institutions, the programme addresses financial barriers and shortages in public facilities, ensuring no child is denied education due to cost or location.",

Registrations\nwill open in June 2026 as part of the New Student Admission System\/New\nStudent Registration (SPMB\/PPDB) process for the 2026\/2027 academic\nyear. The Head of the West Jakarta Region 1 Education Sub-Department,\nAgus Ramdhani, stated that the free private school programme represents\na tangible commitment to providing broader and more equitable access to\neducation. \u201cWith the existence of free private schools, it is hoped that\nmore students can continue their education with good quality and a\nsupportive learning environment,\u201d said Agus when contacted on Tuesday.\nAgus added that the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has selected 11\nfree private schools within the jurisdiction of the West Jakarta Region\n1 Education Sub-Department. \u201cThe selection of free private schools is\nprioritised in sub-districts that do not have public schools,\u201d said\nAgus. The 11 schools are: Sekolah Luar Biasa (SLB) B-C Alfiany, SLB B-C\nKasih Bunda, SLB C Bina Insan Kamil, SMP Garuda, SMP Melania I, SMP\nMuhammadiyah 32, SMP Cindera Mata Indah, SMA Lamaholot, SMKS Citra\nUtama, SMKS Permata Bunda, and SMKS Benteng Gading Jakarta. \u201cBased on\nGovernor\u2019s Decree No.\u00a0312 of 2026, there are requirements for selecting\nfree schools, including the school having an establishment permit, being\naccredited by the National Education Accreditation Agency, and receiving\nschool operational assistance from the central government over the past\nthree years,\u201d he said. Furthermore, Agus explained that the schools must\nalso conduct complete teaching and learning activities without\ninterrupted classes. \u201cFor example, for primary school level, the school\nmust have classes 1 through 6. For junior secondary school, classes 7\nthrough 9 must be available, and for senior secondary school\/vocational\nschool, classes 10 through 12,\u201d he said. Through this programme, Agus\ncontinued, it is hoped that no more schoolchildren will face\ndifficulties accessing education due to financial limitations or the\nscarcity of public school facilities in their area. \u201cThe free private\nschool service for the 2026\/2027 academic year will open along with\nPPDB\/SPMB. We are still awaiting the regulations. This week, there will\nbe socialisation from the education agency. It is estimated for June\n2026,\u201d he added.<\/p>",
