Shadow Teacher
Yayasan Pendidikan Indieklusi Indonesia (YPII) is a leading inclusive institution fully committed to realizing friendly, fair, and equitable learning spaces for all students. Focusing on the handling and assistance of Children with Special Needs (ABK), we bridge their right to learn so they can grow optimally in regular school environments alongside children their own age. For over 7 years, we have been trusted to accompany hundreds of children and families through a professional, structured, humanistic, and sustainable inclusive education service ecosystem. We do not only focus on student assistance, but are also active in teacher training, the formulation of Individualized Education Programs (PPI/IEP), the provision of special tutoring services, up to the implementation of clinical psychological counseling. At YPII, we believe that every child has a unique potential that deserves support. We build an adaptive, supportive, and familial work environment for educators. We provide intensive training programs, competency certification, as well as clear and structured career paths—from the _Associate_ level to _Inclusion Education Supervisor_—to ensure each of our staff grows into a competent educational professional on the national stage. We are looking for individuals committed to helping children with special needs achieve their best potential through inclusive and sustainable learning approaches.
