Ministry of
Religious Affairs is working to operationalize the Grand Design for
Improving Madrasah Education Quality. The purpose of the Ministry of
Religious Affairs' (MoRA) Grand Design is to provide a roadmap for
improving the quality of madrasah education over the next five years in
order to contribute to MoRA's vision that tolerant, moderate, inclusive
Islamic education in Indonesia becomes a model for the world. Madrasah
education encompasses both state and private basic and secondary
institutions. The Grand Design describes a systemic change in the way
MoRA implements programs to improve competencies of madrasah teachers,
support staff and management, the upgrading of facilities, how MoRA
funds these programs, and revision of regulations that will strengthen
program implementation and financing madrasah quality improvement.
The
Australian government through the Department of Foreign Affairs and
Trade (DFAT) will support a team of technical advisers to assist MoRA
priorities. This technical assistance will help develop work plans and
priorities in order for MoRA to implement the Grand Design document. It
will focus on three crucial areas: policy adjustment, continuous
professional development and quality assurance.
National Senior Specialist for Quality Assurance
will assist in developing a system for quality assurance of madrasah
education. This will include developing technical guidelines for
Madrasah Development Centers (MDCs) as the quality assurance mechanism
for madrasah, and developing recommendations for a system to ensure MDC
quality and capacity to deliver their new function as a quality
assurance institute.
