<![CDATA[The Indonesian government has emphasized the need for National Education Standards, which are a reference for the quality of education at every level of education, both formal and non-formal. National education standards are the minimum criteria for the education system in all jurisdictions of the Republic of Indonesia. After being established through Government Regulation No 19 of 2005 on National Education Standards, the national education standards need to be evaluated and if necessary restructured. The government regulation states that the national education standards should be improved in a planned, directed and sustainable manner in accordance with the changing demands of local, national and global life. Evaluation needs to be carried out on the national education standards as a whole, covering the eight components of the standards and reviewed from various aspects. In evaluating and restructuring the national education standards, this can be done by reducing the standard content indicators, simplifying the standard aspects and reducing the standard components. Based on the results of this study, the author concludes that it is necessary to restructure the national education standards by reducing the number of standards to four: graduate competency standards, content standards, process standards and assessment standards. While the other four standards can be considered not to be set as part of the national education standards, because they are already regulated in the national education regulations.]]>
