Education in Kertosono

Education in Kertosono is mostly devolved to the individual political entities which make up Kertosono. It is coordinated at the national level via the Ministry of Education and the Enlightenment of the People (Kertic: ꦑꦩꦤ꧀ꦠꦿꦶꦪꦤ꧀ꦥꦩꦂꦢꦺꦤ꧀ꦠꦸꦂꦥꦚ꧀ꦗꦼꦭꦺꦤ꧀ꦠꦿꦺꦃꦲꦤ꧀ꦏꦮꦸꦭ, Kamantriyan Pamardèn tur Panjlèntrèhan Kawulå), which includes higher education. There is a choice between sectarian and non-sectarian schooling. Most sectarian schools adhere to a branch of Salamid and combine theoretical education with religious education. There is also a choice between state-run schools and private schools, though an overwhelming majority of students are enrolled in a state-run school.

All citizens in Kertosono must undergo 10 years of compulsory education, consisting of 6 years in a pawiyatan dhasar "Elementary School", and 4 years in a pawiyatan madyå pratåmå "first middle school". Attending a prawiyåtå "kindergarten" is not mandatory, but is actively promoted and encouraged. After finishing compulsory education, students have the option to continue vocational training in a pawiyatan madyå kajuron "vocational middle school", or continue in a more theoretical path within a pawiyatan madyå inggil "upper middle school". The length of vocational training differs depending on the trade selected, ranging from 2 years to 4 years in more complex trades. Theoretical high schools prepare for entry into universities, and last for another 3 years.
