Quality assurance in Australian higher education is based on a strong partnership between the higher education sector and the Australian Government, state and territory. This partnership ensures nationally consistent standards in approval and accreditation, external monitoring and independent quality audit. A. 

Education System in Australia Education in Australia is not held by the central government, but left to each state or territory. Thus, every state has the right to hold a different education. It is based on the constitution of Australia, where education is the responsibility of the state. In every state, a Ministry of Education with an education department carry out primary and secondary education, and sometimes also of preschool education. Thus, each state and mainland territory has its own authority in the implementation of education. According to Law No. 20 Year 2003 on National Education System mentioned in Article 1 Paragraph 8 that education is the stage of education is defined by the level of development of learners, objectives to be achieved, and capacities developed. Judging from formal education, Australia is made up of three stages of education, namely primary education (primary schools), secondary education (secondary education, including secondary school / high schools) and higher education (tertiary education in universties or TAFE [techical and further education ] college).

There are times when, before entering primary school, students entering kindergarten or kindergarten. In Australia, basic education is the basis for entering the next level, ie secondary education.

At the level of senior high school, every student has the obligation to choose a vocational education or general education. Vocational training geared to the labor market, meaning that graduates of vocational education will be ready to work after graduation. Each state has a Vocational Education and Training (Vocational Education and Training or VET). VET prepare learners to work without the need to get a college degree. For students who take general education, pursue a higher education diploma, bachelor degree, and so on. Here are the qualifications of Australian qualifications framework (AQF or Australian Qualification Framework) according to the education sector. 

To test for students who apply nationally, Australia held NAPLAN (National Assessment Program-Literacy and Numeracy). Each year, all students who are in year 3, 5, 7, and 9 to perform tests on the same day. The test materials include reading, writing, language (spelling, grammar, and punctuation), and calculation.

Matters relating include basic things to achieve success, lifelong learning, and participation in Australian society.

This means that the needs and interests of students will vary, so that schools and teachers will plan a curriculum based on the needs and interests. Australian Curriculum also recognizes changes in the way in which students will learn, and there are shared challenges that will continue to shape their learning in the future ahead. Curriculum Australia will be developed for all learning areas and subjects specified in Melbourne Declaration: initially for English, math, science / science and history, followed by geography, language, art, economics, business, and civic, health education and sport , as well as information and communication technology.

Australian Curriculum sets out what should be learned by students through the curriculum specifications and learning expected at their school grades through the specification of standards of achievement (the specification of achievement standards). In a world where science can terkembang constant, students need to develop skills, attitudes and dispositions, or the ability of general throughout the content discipline and equip them to become lifelong learners, able to operate with confidence, information-rich, in a globalized world [ 3].

COMPARATIVE EDUCATION SYSTEM IN AUSTRALIA AND INDONESIA

COMPARATIVE EDUCATION SYSTEM IN AUSTRALIA AND INDONESIA

Comparative Education System in Australia and Indonesia

As we know that every country must have the respective policies in the education system that was followed. Similarly, Australia and Indonesia. Apparently a lot of comparisons between the education systems in Australia and Indonesia, apart from education course. Want to know what the comparison of education systems in Australia and Indonesia ? Let's read the following explanation.

Weights and Difficulty Materials

Did you know, when viewed from the weight and level of difficulty of the subject matter, the standard of basic education in Indonesia turned out to be much higher. If here students in grades 2 SD've been getting a lot of lessons, a variety of complex homework and exams. Unlike the case with comparable students grade 1 to 2 in Australia that have not been required to read. Basic education in Australia is more emphasized as the foundation for learning to recognize themselves, the environment and the development of attitudes. It is considered more important to be taught and applied in advance to the elementary school students there than the theory in the classroom. Therefore, I wonder if in Australia is often seen students Primary School are conducting activities outside the classroom.

Assessment (Assessment)

In the field of assessment, unlike Indonesia Australia that require students to take the exam as a requirement for the next grade. There is no student grades. However, there are national exams such as UAN, called NAPLAN (National Assessment Program Literacy and Numeracy), the national tests simultaneously in Australia's ability to read, write, and count as preparation for entering Year 10 or equivalent with a grade one high school. Although the standard material of Indonesia is superior, but when entering the lecture seemed our country more disadvantaged compared to Australia. This is not only due to the technological equipment and facilities that are adequate, but in terms of factors students must have a strong character development, the foundation of attitude from the start, and a more critical mind.

Award Reward

Giving reward or award is quite interesting. Elementary school students in Australia who have the courage to do good and positive will be given a reward in the form of a certificate, which will eventually collected will be announced at the show assembly, the bi-weekly event for the development of talent and art students. Make no mistake, the school award and written report also attainment or achievement that has been done by the students. Here we see that the character development and emotional intelligence are strongly emphasized in elementary education. Therefore, assessment of students in Australia report narrative, instead of numbers such as those found in schools in Indonesia.

Atmosphere Study

Learning environment in primary schools in Australia looks more favorable than here. Things to support the learning process is the number of students in a class of no more than 20 students. And there are media, portfolio collection, and props are complete, and the walls of the classroom are busy with the work of the students. It is rarely seen in classes at the school in Indonesia that in fact prefer to stay 'clean', as well as the lack of media and props that can increase students' motivation.

Teacher

In terms of educators, Australia looks more disciplined. Teachers are required to come to class early before the entrance pupil. However, it seems to Indonesia taking part offset the discipline. So there is no significant difference.

Subjects Religion

Unlike the Indonesian schools in each education level, had a religious upbringing. Schools in Australia is very unfortunate not provide it as a teaching material.

Well, that was the explanation of the comparison of education systems in Australia and Indonesia . Already know what the comparison? Of course, with different educational system, there must have its own advantages and disadvantages. Expected you can adopt the good and discard the bad ya ..
