This study aims to
analyze and compare the senior secondary education systems in Indonesia and
Vietnam with a focus on educational equity covering four main aspects: Access
to Education, Teaching Quality, Curriculum Relevance and Education Efficiency.
This study is motivated by various challenges faced by Indonesia, such as
inequality in access to education between urban and rural areas, low quality of
teaching, inconsistency of the curriculum with the needs of the 21st century,
and lack of innovation in learning. Vietnam was chosen as the object of
comparison because of its success in improving the quality of education evenly
despite having limited resources. This study uses a qualitative approach
through a literature study of education policies and practices in both
countries. The results of the analysis show that Vietnam implements various
effective strategies, such as providing incentives for teachers in remote
areas, community-based teacher training, strengthening competency-based
curriculum, utilizing digital technology, and consistency in the direction of
education policy. These findings provide an overview that Indonesia can learn
from these policies to strengthen educational equity, improve teaching quality,
adjust the curriculum to current needs, and encourage sustainable educational
innovation.
