          Previously I wanted to tell the story first, huh ... why did I choose the new zealand country, sell lots of unique countries to discuss. I chose this new zealand because there are not many people discussing about this, hehe, if the countries of South Korea, Japan, Finland, etc. are usually too many people who want to discuss about these countries. I chose the new zealand country. I hope this article can increase the knowledge of the readers. 

          Thanks to the readers. Come on, get to know the education system in New Zealand, and what are the differences with education in Indonesia?

          

          New Zealand is an archipelago located in the southern Pacific Ocean. New Zealand's education system is currently ranked number 7 in the world, far better than many OECD countries. OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) is an intergovernmental economic organization with 36 member countries, [1] founded in 1961 to stimulate economic progress and world trade. It is a forum of countries describing themselves as committed to democracy and the market economy, providing a platform to compare policy experiences, seeking answers to common problems.

Educational privileges in New Zealand

      The education system in New Zealand is oriented towards students' ability to solve problems, collaborate with friends, create and innovate new things. These things are intended so that students can grow and develop into creative people who can think "outside the box". This concept has been introduced early for every student who wants to study in New Zealand and of course this is what characterizes the education system in this country. The education system in New Zealand itself is one of the best education systems in the world with quality that is certainly recognized internationally.

     The level of education in New Zealand is also divided into several stages, including Early Childhood, Primary School, Intermediate School, Secondary School and Higher Education.

• Early childhood (2 - 4 years). In New Zealand, pre-school is an important education period. Therefore, many institutions offer pre-school education. Playgroups, play centers, home care services, kindergartens to kōhanga reo (Māori language learning center). The focus is to make children active and enjoy learning while playing.

• Primary school (5-10 years). Here, they will be introduced to various key lessons such as English, mathematics, statistics, science, technology, social sciences, arts and health, to sports. In addition, the last two years at the elementary school level, students will learn other foreign languages.

• Intermediate school (11 - 12 years). Uniquely, after completing Primary School, students in New Zealand can take Intermediate Education in the region that provides. Its function is to bridge knowledge from Primary School to higher education. Approximately, this is at the junior high school level in Indonesia.

• Secondary school (13-14). Now, entering Secondary School, New Zealand students begin to be directed to take the subject or subject they like. The average Secondary School students there take 5 subjects each year. Cool, all education at this level has been certified through the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) which is internationally accepted. That means, you who graduated from Secondary School in New Zealand can be accepted in almost all world tertiary education that requires a certificate of graduation from an educational institution of tertiary education level or high school level if in Indonesia.

DIFFERENCES OF EDUCATION SYSTEM BETWEEN NEW ZEALAND & INDONESIA
1. Less subjects
In New Zealand there are only ordinary secondary schools, unlike in Indonesia which have special schools such as vocational schools. But Karmela explained that the curriculum used by high school students is the same as that suggested by vocational high school students. When they graduate from high school, they also have skills like vocational school children. These subjects (subjects) who like to learn are also smaller. The rest just for the subject according to what the participants want. So from high school they already know where their strength is,
2. Integrated collaboration
One of the prominent factors in New Zealand is that New Zealand is collaborating between universities and industries that are currently being developed. Not only universities, for polytechnic education or vocational education, even students only study according to industry needs. So, once they graduate, they are really ready to bear the world of work.
3. Egalitarian
If in Indonesia the issue of courtesy and respect for older people is highly recommended, in contrast to the New, more egalitarian.
There, students don't have restrictions or limitations with them. Their friendly and familiar form is seen from the students who have their names directly.

          Those are some of the differences education in New Zealand with Indonesia, hopefully this writing can increase your knowledge.
