changes, with 41 percent of these citizens living in Sumatra, but <strong>on</strong>ly 12 percent in the Papuaprovinces.Figure IV.11: Map – Number of Citizens without Access to ECED FacilitiesFigure IV.11 shows the absolute number of people without access to ECED facilities by subdistrict.Most sub-districts with more than 10,000 people living in villages without access to ECEDfacilities are found for Sumatera Utara (83), Sumatera Selatan (52), Kalimantan Barat (51), Papua(41), Banten (30), as well as NAD (28) and NTT (28). Again, we observe particularly significantdifferences between relative and absolute gaps for Papua, driven by at the same time low relativescores and low populati<strong>on</strong> densities.Figure IV.12: Map – Number of Citizens without Access to SMP within 6kmOverall similar patterns are observed for the availability of a SMP facility within 6 km from thevillage. While 44 percent of the sub-districts with access rates below 75 percent are located in thePapua provinces (Table IV.13), this regi<strong>on</strong> accounts for 15 percent of the 9.46 Mio. citizenswithout access. Most people without junior sec<strong>on</strong>dary schools within 6 km distance live in Java andSumatra, with the highest absolute numbers found for the provinces of Papua (1.23 Mio.),Sumatera Utara (0.84 Mio.), Jawa Barat (0.77 Mio.), Jawa Tengah (0.76 Mio.), Jawa Barat (0.71Mio.), Kalimantan Barat (0.68 Mio.), and Sumatera Selatan (0.60 Mio.).44
Teacher Qualificati<strong>on</strong>Turning to the indicators of teacher qualificati<strong>on</strong>, we calculate the number of additi<strong>on</strong>al teacherswith an S1 degree needed to reach the targets of (i) at least two ‘S1’ teachers in each SD school and(ii) at least 70 percent of teachers with S1 degree in each SMP school, respectively. Under theassumpti<strong>on</strong> of a c<strong>on</strong>stant total teaching force, 32,586 SD teachers and 26,086 SMP teachers wouldneed to obtain a bachelor’s degree or be replaced by new teachers with this qualificati<strong>on</strong>. However,these numbers may be seen as upper-bound estimates for at least two reas<strong>on</strong>s. First, we alsoc<strong>on</strong>sider temporarily hired teachers here. For instance, the number of additi<strong>on</strong>ally needed SMPteachers with an S1 degree decreases to 14,675 when the 70 percent goal is to be achieved am<strong>on</strong>gpermanent staff <strong>on</strong>ly. Sec<strong>on</strong>d, recent studies point to an over-supply of teachers especially in smallschools in rural areas (World Bank, 2010), which would call into questi<strong>on</strong> the underlyingassumpti<strong>on</strong> of a c<strong>on</strong>stant teaching force.Nevertheless, the numbers provide insight into the spatial distributi<strong>on</strong> of teacher(under)qualificati<strong>on</strong>. Out of the estimated 32,856 additi<strong>on</strong>al SD teachers with S1 qualificati<strong>on</strong>, 11.1percent would need to be hired in Sumatera Utara, 10.4 percent in Kalimantan Barat, 9.6 percent inNTT, as well as 7.5 and 6.4 percent in the Maluku and Papua provinces, respectively. At SMPlevel, the target of having at least 70 percent of the teaching force holding an S1 degree wouldrequire the qualificati<strong>on</strong>/replacement of 2,180 ‘n<strong>on</strong>-S1 teachers’ in the province of Sumatera Utara,2,094 in NAD, 2,012 in Jawa Barat, 1,832 in Kalimantan Barat, 1,739 in NTT, and 1,713 inMaluku. Building CharacteristicsThe assessment of existing gaps with respect to building characteristics reveals that a total of21,653 public schools lack electricity and 30,207 schools do not provide water in the student’sbathroom. Most of these schools are elementary schools, which account for 86 percent of theschools both without electricity and water in the student’s bathroom. Most of the schools withoutelectricity are thereby found in Sumatra (7,337), Sulawesi (4,701) and Kalimantan (4,010). Waterin the student’s bathroom is not available in 10,256 public schools in Sumatra, 8,276 in Java, 4,379in Sulawesi, and 2,574 in Kalimantan.45
