Abstract

Abstract Education for children with intellectual disabilities in Indonesia can be held together with other children in regular schools that conduct inclusive education or undertaken independently in special schools. If it is held in public schools it shall use a modified curriculum adapted to the character and potential of those children. If it is held in special schools it shall use a curriculum that specifically designed based on individualized competency standards which is compiled and defined by schools based on the results of assessment. The education for children with intellectual disabilities is more focused on development of vocational skills than development of intellectual skills. The goal is for those children to be able to live independently and have vocational skills to live in the community. So far, the curriculum used for children with intellectual disabilities could not fully accommodate their needs to be able to live independently because it currently uses a modified regular curriculum. To have adequate vocational skills, their education needs to be conducted continuously, focused on a certain set of skills, and implemented through an internship program in sheltered workshops. By having a specifically designed educational service, children with intellectual disabilities could develop their skills optimally.
