Palembang (Antara Bali) - Education and Culture Minister Mohammad Nuh said no subjects will be eliminated from the 2013 curriculum which is being put to a public test.
"The subjects are integrated and are not eliminated. Therefore, IPA (exact science) and IPS (social science) will always be included in the elementary school curriculum," Nuh said here on Sunday.
After all, a number of subjects, such as IPA and IPS will be integrated to other subjects, he said.
According to him, the 2013 curriculum which is being put to a public test emphasizes competence-based education.
This way, students will be taught how to act honestly and have skill and broader insight since they are elementary school students.
He added that six out of 10 subjects which are currently taught at elementary schools including Indonesian language and mathematics will be maintained.
Mathematics and science serve as foundation to encourage the younger generations to think rationally, he said. (*/T007)
