The Impact Of The Covid-19 Pandemic On The Educational System In Indonesia

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread throughout the world, impacting and paralysing sectors, including education. The education system, especially in Indonesia, has become unstable due to the pandemic. New policies in learning have been initiated by the government still encounter difficulties in their implementation. However, almost all elements of education have been complaining about this. The psychological impact is not only experienced by students, but educators and parents but also experience mental health problems caused by the pandemic. Nevertheless, the responsibility cannot be imposed by the government only, all layers of the existing educational elements must be able to work hand in hand, with the same conditions and unpreparedness. Therefore, education in Indonesia will be able to recover and operate again as it should, even though it must implement a new learning policy to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
