Jakarta (Antara Bali) - The government is changing the national curriculum, and it is keen on implementing the new curriculum by 2013, said a parliament member.
"It is a big deal because the national curriculum is an important element of an education system," said Reni Marlinawati, the parliament's commission X member of the United Development Party, on Thursday.
"Moreover, teachers have to understand the new curriculum before they start teaching. Are the teachers prepared?" she added.
She said that the government has to run counselling and technical guidance programmes for at least three years so that teachers understand the new curriculum completely.
"The government has to run such programmes because 2.8 million teachers have to understand the new curriculum," she stated. (IGT/T007)
