        "summary": "The West Java Private Schools Forum (FKSS) has protested the use of the 'CADAS' application, alleging it allows the provincial education agency to fill empty seats in state schools after the official admission process has ended. The forum argues this practice unfairly draws students who have already enrolled and paid fees at private schools, threatening their financial stability and academic planning. FKSS is demanding the immediate cessation of the application and calling on the provincial government to ensure a balanced educational ecosystem.",
        "content": "<p>The West Java Private Schools Forum (FKSS) has questioned the\nexistence of the Cadangan SPMB (CADAS) application, which is allegedly\nused internally by the West Java Education Agency to fill vacant seats\nin state schools. The application is considered to have harmed Private\nCooperation Schools (SSK), as it is operated after all stages of the\nStudent Admission Process (SPMB) for the 2026\/2027 academic year have\nofficially concluded.<\/p>\n<p>FKSS Chairman Ade D Hendriana stated that the forum is requesting the\nimmediate cessation of the CADAS application. He explained that the\nentire SPMB process for the 2026\/2027 academic year had already ended on\n14 July 2026. The implementation of CADAS after the official process has\ncaused unrest among private schools, as prospective students who had\nofficially re-registered, paid administrative fees, and even\nparticipated in the School Environment Introduction Period (MPLS) at\nprivate institutions have transferred to state schools. This situation\nhas directly impacted the stability of education delivery in private\nschools.<\/p>\n<p>Ade Hendriana detailed that the impact is felt in academic planning,\nschool finances, and public trust in private schools. He emphasised that\nprivate schools have consistently strived to support the policies of the\nWest Java Provincial Government and the Education Agency, including the\nPrivate Cooperation Schools programme. However, the application of CADAS\nafter the SPMB stages were completed has added to the disappointment and\nuncertainty for private schools.<\/p>\n<p>In response, FKSS Jabar has submitted demands to the West Java\nEducation Agency. They are calling for the immediate cessation of the\nCADAS application and strict adherence to the established official SPMB\nregulations and schedule. They also demand assurance that prospective\nstudents who have already re-registered at private schools will not be\ntransferred to state schools. Furthermore, FKSS is urging the\nmaintenance of a balanced educational ecosystem between state and\nprivate schools, hoping the provincial government will take steps that\nfavour legal certainty, justice, and the sustainability of education in\nWest Java.<\/p>",
