YOGYAKARTA - The Yogyakarta City Youth and Sports Education Office reminded school managers to comply with Government Regulation Number 17 of 2010 concerning Education Management and Implementation, which includes a ban on schools selling uniforms or uniform materials.
"We continue to carry out socialization regarding school management. If there are schools that are found to be still carrying out these practices, we will reprimand and remind them," said Head of the Yogyakarta City Youth and Sports Education Office Budhi Asrori in Yogyakarta, quoted from Antara, Thursday, July 7.
According to him, a circular regarding the implementation of Government Regulation Number 17 of 2010 had been submitted to schools long before the implementation of the acceptance of new students (PPDB).
However, the Representative of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia (ORI) of the Special Region of Yogyakarta during the supervision of PPDB received complaints from the public about the practice of selling uniforms or uniforms by school and madrasa managers that were packaged in such a way.
"The management of school management needs to be addressed and must refer to all the regulations that have been set. This is what we will continue to strive for," said Budhi.
He stated that parents or guardians of students who had already spent money to pay for uniforms to school could ask for their money back if they objected to having to buy uniforms or uniforms from school.
"If that happens, then the school must return the money that had been received if the parents were not pleased. Of course we will reprimand the school," he said.
The Yogyakarta City Youth and Sports Education Office will coordinate with related agencies in other districts as well as the Yogyakarta Special Region Youth and Sports Education Office to prevent similar practices from happening again.
"Because, from the data submitted by ORI also includes schools in other districts in DIY," said Budhi.
Schools in the city of Yogyakarta, according to the Ombudsman Representative of the Republic of Indonesia, the Special Region of Yogyakarta, are suspected of buying and selling uniforms, including SMP Negeri 5 Yogyakarta, SMP Negeri 8 Yogyakarta, SMP Negeri 12 Yogyakarta, SMA Negeri 11 Yogyakarta, and MAN 2 Yogyakarta.
The head of SMP Negeri 5 Yogyakarta Siti Arina Budiastuti confirmed that her school did not sell school uniforms.
"Not only do we not force to buy uniforms because we do not sell uniforms," he said.
According to Siti, the school will even hold a uniform handover ceremony that is suitable for the clothes of the parents of class IX students who have graduated to school in the introduction of the school environment (PLS).
"This variety is beneficial for schools because there are often students who have to borrow during the learning process because of various things, such as the uniform being exposed to ink, being splashed with water during cooking practices, or other events," he said.
He added that uniforms can also be given to students who need uniforms because their parents have not been able to buy uniforms.
"This culture has been going on for a long time and there is no term having to wear a new uniform during the new school year," he said.
