A Teacher Just Resigned Mid-Term. What to Do First, and What to Tell Parents
Settle the last teaching date in writing before anything else, because a voluntary resignation in Indonesia carries a written notice of at least 30 days and a duty to keep working until that date.

Staff-to-Child Ratios for Indonesian Daycares and PAUD Centres
Indonesia's Permendikbud 137/2014 sets maximum caregiver-to-child ratios for PAUD and daycare: one caregiver for every four children aged birth to two years, one for every eight children aged two to four years, and one for every fifteen children aged four to six years. Meeting these ratios shapes your staffing, scheduling, and enrolment caps.
