Abstract

Educational development must be carried out thoughtfully, following the principles of good governance which is transparent, effective, and efficient. Education becomes a solution for the intellectual life of the nation and a key enabler for sustainable development. Realizing this principle of efficiency and effectiveness, the government adopted a policy of merging 15 Education Technical Implementation Units (UPTD) at the North Aceh Education and Culture Office. The research found that in North Aceh District, 15 UPTD were merged into the Education and Culture Office, which disrupted 30 structural officials losing their positions, and 90 honorary staffs are no longer receiving salaries. The study suggests that the local government should carefully and well-designed the regulations regarding the merging 15 Education Technical Implementation Units at the North Aceh regency. The accurate implementation of the policy will not sacrifice many teaching staff and administrative officers. However, we realize that the principle of efficiency for this task is to save the use of the education budget.
