JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Ahmad Riza Patria, responded to the suggestion of the DKI DPRD who wanted periodic psychological tests for teachers. This is in the aftermath of the case of mistreatment of unscrupulous teachers against one of the students of SMKN 1 Jakarta.
Riza admitted that the proposal would not necessarily be realized. Given, the DKI Provincial Government still needs to calculate the consequences of the budget that must be disbursed to hold psychological tests for teachers.
"Of course, this proposal has cost consequences. The number of teachers is not 100-200. If we do a psychological test, how much will it cost, where will the funding come from," said Riza at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Thursday, August 18.
Moreover, said Riza, every teacher in public schools has undergone psychological tests during the recruitment process as educators.
"Indeed, so far when doing work exposures, one of the recruitment processes is psychological tests," he said.
Regarding the case of abuse by unscrupulous teachers at SMKN 1 Jakarta, Riza ensured that there would be sanctions that would be imposed as a disciplinary punishment for the perpetrators. This is because the teacher's behavior cannot be justified.
"There will be sanctions, but we will see how far the truth is and how far the persecution is carried out. Of course, anyone who is guilty, even a teacher, must be punished," he said.
Previously, the Chairman of Commission E of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Iman Satria, asked the DKI Education Office to periodically conduct psychological tests on all public school teachers in Jakarta.
Faith's suggestion is the aftermath of the case of mistreatment of unscrupulous teachers on one of the students of SMKN 1 Jakarta. According to Iman, psychological tests need to be carried out to find psychological causes for similar cases.
"Later, we will see why this teacher did that, whether the psychological test is lacking. This must be retested, whether it's once or twice a year," said Iman when contacted, Tuesday, August 16.
According to Iman, the length of time a teacher teaches in a school is also a determining factor in their respective psychology, which can have an impact on the way teachers deal with students.
"Sometimes, if a teacher has been in (one) school for too long, he will feel bored. Then, if a teacher who has just moved in, he has to adjust. Those who were in a good place, moved, met with naughty children. , it could also be different temperament, "said Iman.
For information, a student of SMKN 1 class XII with the initials RH (18) found bruises on his eyes as a result of being mistreated by a teacher with the initials HT at his school.
Ramdhani, the victim's parent, said that his son was abused in the gym teacher's room on Friday, August 12.
"My son has bruises on his right eye, and his lips are also injured. We have also received a post-mortem at the Central Jakarta Hospital," Ramdhani said when confirmed by reporters, Monday, August 15.
Ramdhani continued, the incident began when an unscrupulous teacher with the initials HT received news that RH had been harassing his classmate.
"My son just didn't know about the problem of bullying that happened to class X students. When he was called, he asked my son, then my son said he didn't know," he said.
After his son answered that he didn't know, the TNI member continued, the teacher immediately slapped RH. Not only that, RH was also hit in the chest and turned around until he was stepped on.
