This report examines the policy options and financial implications of the expansion of senior secondary education in Indonesia. The current funding of government senior secondary education is complex and varies throughout the country. It involves different levels of government providing financial support for infrastructure, salaries, and operational costs. This report has been prepared with grant support provided by Australian Aid and the European Union through the Education Sector Analytical and Capacity Development Partnership (ACDP).
