JABAR - The West Java Province Education Office (Disdik) has prepared a new regulation for the acceptance of New Student Participants (PPDB) for the equivalent SMA level zoning system this year.

Head of West Java Provincial Education Office Wahyu Mijaya said regulations related to the PPDB zoning system changed referring to the provisions of the new Secretary General's Decree (Kepsesjen) of the Ministry of Education and Culture.

In this new regulation, said Wahyu, the transfer of students is at least more than one year before the PPDB is opened, and moves with their parents or guardians.

"The move is at least more than a year. Then the change is that the move must be with his parents or guardians," said Wahyu.

So, he continued, the new family card (KK) is not only students who move, but along with their parents or guardians. In addition, the name of the guardian of the student must be listed in the junior high school ramp.

"So it's no longer just the student. But also the one who is traveling can be the uncle or whoever, it becomes the guardian. But if you don't become the guardian, it means we can't enter for a zoning process," he explained.

In addition, Wahyu continued, the zoning system will be the first stage in this year's high school level PPDB. Including for families with underprivileged economies.

"Even for underprivileged economic families, specifically for extreme poverty we provide special quotas, special spaces, so we have registered them," he said.
