1 Introduction

Indonesia is an archipelago with more than 16000 islandsthat are 5027 rural and 4973 urban by area It is alsoknown as a multiethnic country with over 1300 ethnicitiesdivided into 31 ethnic groups [1] e Indonesian Ministryof Education and Culture has identified 668 local languagesin Indonesia and its data show that 795 of the Indonesianpopulation aged above five years communicates daily usinglocal languages [1]

Based on its demographic and sociocultural character-istics Indonesia has the potential to have a high disparityparticularly in education access and quality erefore

Indonesia has tried to improve the educational attainment ofchildren from low-income households in the context ofequity in education for all In 1997 the Indonesian gov-ernment implemented a social safety net (SSN) program tobuffer the hardship resulting from the economic crisis eaim of the SSN program was to maintain the quality of thelearning process and school enrollment rates and to reducethe dropout rates e SSN program consists of scholarshipsfor the poor and subsidies for the schools [2 3] In 2005 theIndonesian government implemented the school opera-tional assistance (SOB) and an unconditional cash transferprogram (UCT) e SOB program provided subsidies forboth public and private schools with the aim of maintaining

the quality of the educational service UCT program wasintended to anticipate the negative effects of the govern-mentrsquos plan to reduce a fuel subsidy

Kharisma [4] found that the provision of SOB had apositive effect on dropout rates for students aged between 16and 20 years but not for those aged between 7 and 15 yearsFurthermore the Indonesian government has constantlycommitted to not leaving any child behind in developmentas the core of the agenda 2030 on education for sustainabledevelopment (ESD) Since 2014 the Indonesian governmenthas provided smart cards to more than 24 million poorstudents and others who cannot attend school because offinancial issues Based on the report [5] Indonesia is one ofthe low-income or middle-income countries whose share ofthe state budget for education is likely to be high eamendment of the education budget was simultaneous withthe start of a decentralized government system

Since 1998 Indonesia has given greater autonomy tolocal governments due to the commencement of a refor-mation movement across Indonesia Education manage-ment was also delegated more to the local governments econstitution states that local governments are obliged toallocate a minimum of 20 of their budgets to the educationsector Furthermore local governments have a crucial role inproviding access to education

Muttaqin [6] found that local governments with moreresources can provide more scholarships to attract pupilsfrom poor families to return to school but this is not the casefor local governments with fewer resources such as localgovernments with greater rural areas At least there is adisparity in education quality between rural and urban areasand between western and eastern Indonesia Based onwelfare statistics [7] the percentage of the population whoare aged above 15 years that literate is 9749 in urban areasand 9313 in rural areas e school enrollment ratio of thepopulation aged between 16 and 18 years is 7521 in urbanareas and 6771 in rural areas e net enrollment ratio ofthe population for senior high school is 6433 in urbanareas and 5606 in rural areas Azzizah [8] point out theapparent gap of education among the eastern and westernprovinces in Indonesia using the dummy regression analysisand the most influencing factor was the poverty rate

e report [9] showed that the Indonesian children andyouth who do not have sufficient access to education are inremote and isolated areas and in poor communities isreport was based on data of the National SocioeconomicSurvey 2015 which stated that the composition of the groupof out-of-school children (OOSC) of elementary school agewas 81 from rural areas (based on location) 49 frompoor families (based on wealth) and 40 from Papua (basedon region)

e fourth sustainable development goal (SDG) oneducation is to ensure inclusive and equitable education andto promote lifelong learning opportunities for all One of thetargets is ldquoby 2030 to eliminate gender disparities in edu-cation and ensure equal access to all levels of education andvocational training for the vulnerable including personswith disabilities indigenous peoples and children in vul-nerable situationsrdquo One of the disparity indices is rural-

urban As reported in [10] youths aged between 20 and 24years living in rural areas in 101 low- and middle-incomecountries have on average an education period 26 yearsshorter than do those in urban areas Indonesia is one ofthese countries In Indonesia rural-urban disparities arewidely prevalent across indicators in each target of the fourthSDG since poverty is still concentrated in rural areas [9]e report [5] shows that children born in selected ruralareas in Indonesia whomigrated to an urban area as childrenwere found to have attained three more years of educationthan those who did not migrate is shows that migrationfrom rural to urban areas can increase educational attain-ment due to the low access to education in rural areas

erefore some educational research studies have fo-cused on rural areas to provide more specific reviews Yueet al [11] researched policy and trends in rural educationfrom preschool to high school in China over 40 years from1978 to 2018 Rural schools continually improved in allaspects In 1980 only a small proportion of rural childrenattended preschool but in 2014 more than 90 of ruralchildren attended preschool Carrascal et al [12] focusedtheir research on rural primary schools in Mixco Guate-mala ey developed the ECO Kit as an effective teach-ingndashlearning tool that contributed to improving the visualliteracy and creativity of students In Finland digitalcommunication is being more understandable by ruralteachers than in the urban area and promoted parent-teacher partnership in rural better than did parents in theurban area [13] Cheng et al [14] documented the learningproblems of disadvantaged students in rural areas in Taiwane results showed that in rural elementary schools theeducation levels of most of the parents were below thecollege level students had low motivation and the ordinarystudents and disadvantaged students indeed showed dif-ferences Azzizah [8] found that poverty had a huge influ-ence on the rate of school enrollment particularly inIndonesiarsquos eastern province based on Joseph Nkurunzizarsquosanalysis (hindawi 2012) that students from very poor peoplehave lower odds of attendance in school Based on [9]poverty in Indonesia is still concentrated in rural areas

East Java is one of the provinces in western Indonesiaand it is relatively more advanced than others In East Javaprovince the OOSC rate in the primary school level is only7 while in junior secondary it is 12 and in seniorsecondary it is 14 ese numbers are relatively lowcompared to those in other provinces However one of theregencies in East Java has 100 underdeveloped regionsnamely Sumenep Regency [15] e percentage of poorpeople in Sumenep Regency is 1962 which is the fourthhighest in East Java and the human development index is6428 the fourth lowest in East Java [16]

e principle of ESD is that no child is left behind andemphasizes equity of education by focusing on eliminatingdisparities among regions and socioeconomic groupserefore in this study the factors related to educationquality in Sumenep Regency were explored through thespatial autoregressive model with latent variables (SAR-LVs) Sumenep is a regency with rural characteristics It isnecessary to study the modeling of education quality

specifically rural cases to get deeper and more specificinformation

For this modeling the SAR-LVs approach was usedsince it involves spatial data and latent variables Manystudies on education have involved spatial data Gille [17]tested the existence of education spillovers in a rural contextin India using fixed-effects vector decomposition consistingof the three-stage estimation e result was that one ad-ditional year of education of neighborsrsquo increases farmproductivity by 2 Gao et al [18] analyzed the disparity incompulsory education based on the perspective of the im-balanced spatial distribution using spatial autocorrelationmethods Xu et al [19] calculated the index of geographicaccessibility available opportunity and economic afford-ability to describe the social spatial accessibility In all thesestudies spatial data were used but the spillover effect wasnot tested erefore the aim of the study herein was toperform modeling of education quality that involves spatialdata and latent variables and to test the spillover effect ecase study takes Sumenep Regency since Sumenep has thecharacteristics of an archipelago and multiethnic as aminiature of Indonesia but represents rural areas

Sumenep Regency is one of the regencies in East JavaProvince precisely at the eastern end of Madura Island isregion is located between 113deg32prime54Prime and 116deg16Prime48 eastlongitude and 4deg55Prime00Prime and 7deg24Prime00Primesouth latitude eregion borders Madura Straits to the south the Java Sea tothe north Pamekasan Regency to the west and the Java Seaand Flores Sea to the east Geographically Sumenep Regencyconsists of land and islands with a total area of 209346 km2namely the mainland section of 114693 km2 (5479) andthe archipelago of 94653 km2 (4521) One hundred andtwenty-six islands consisting of 48 inhabited islands and 78uninhabited islands make up the archipelago as shown inFigure 1

Sumenep Regency is divided into 27 districts 18 districtsare on the mainland and 9 districts in the island Districts onthe mainland are Ambunten Batang Batang BatuanBatuputih Bluto Dasuk Dungkek Ganding Gapura GulukGuluk Kalianget Sumenep City Lenteng MandingPasongsongan Pragaan Rubaru and Saronggi Districts inthe island are Arjasa Gayam Giligenteng KangayanMasalembo Nonggunong Raas Sapeken and Talango epopulation consists of at least six ethnic groups namelyMadura Bajo Mandar Bugis Chinese Arabic andJavanese

In 2018 the number of senior high schools in SumenepRegency was 226 consisting of 13 public schools and 213private schools e number of private schools is far morethan that of public schools describing the communityrsquosindependent participation in education It is an interestingillustration if related to the level of poverty in the SumenepRegency Sumenep Regency has 334 villages 100 of whichwere classified as disadvantaged villages [15] Based on data[16] the percentage of poor people is 1962 (the fourthhighest in East Java) and the human development index is6428 (the fourth lowest in East Java)

2 Materials and Methods

21 Research Methods is study focuses on the modelingof education quality at senior high schools using the SAR-LVs model is modeling involves the latent variables andthe sample unit is locationspatial Bollen [20] defined SEMin two models namely the measurement model and thestructural model e measurement model represents therelationship between the manifest variable and exogenouslatent variables (1) or endogenous latent variables (2) whilethe structural model describes the relationship among thelatent variables (3)

x Λx ξ + δ (1)

y Λy η + εlowast (2)

η Blowastη + Γ ξ + ζ (3)

where η is a vector of an endogenous latent variable ξ is avector of an latent variable Blowast is a coefficient matrix thatshows the effect of an endogenous latent variable to anotherendogenous variables Γ is a coefficient matrix which showsthe effect of ξ to η ζ is a vector of random error y and x arethe vectors of observed variableΛy andΛx are the coefficientmatrices which show the relationship of y to η and x to ξ andεlowast and δ are the vectors of measurements of y and x re-spectively where εlowast sim NB(0Θεlowast) δ sim NA(0Θδ) and Θδand Θεlowast are the covariant-variant matrices

Anselin wrote the spatial autoregressive model (SAR)[21] as shown in equation (4)

ylowast λWylowast + Xlowastβ + ε (4)

where ylowast is a vector of a spatially lagged dependent variableXlowast is a matrix of an exogenous variable λ is a spatialautoregressive coefficient ρ is a coefficient of a spatial errorβ is a vector of parameters associated with an exogenousvariable W is a matrix of spatial weight with the maindiagonal elements being zero and ε is the disturbance withε sim N(0 σ2I)

e factor score is the result of estimating the latentvariables in the measurement model via equations (1) and(2) using the weighted least square (WLS) method efactor scores for an endogenous variable and an exogenousrandom variable are given in equations (5) and (6)respectively

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

the quality of the educational service UCT program wasintended to anticipate the negative effects of the govern-mentrsquos plan to reduce a fuel subsidy

Kharisma [4] found that the provision of SOB had apositive effect on dropout rates for students aged between 16and 20 years but not for those aged between 7 and 15 yearsFurthermore the Indonesian government has constantlycommitted to not leaving any child behind in developmentas the core of the agenda 2030 on education for sustainabledevelopment (ESD) Since 2014 the Indonesian governmenthas provided smart cards to more than 24 million poorstudents and others who cannot attend school because offinancial issues Based on the report [5] Indonesia is one ofthe low-income or middle-income countries whose share ofthe state budget for education is likely to be high eamendment of the education budget was simultaneous withthe start of a decentralized government system

Since 1998 Indonesia has given greater autonomy tolocal governments due to the commencement of a refor-mation movement across Indonesia Education manage-ment was also delegated more to the local governments econstitution states that local governments are obliged toallocate a minimum of 20 of their budgets to the educationsector Furthermore local governments have a crucial role inproviding access to education

Muttaqin [6] found that local governments with moreresources can provide more scholarships to attract pupilsfrom poor families to return to school but this is not the casefor local governments with fewer resources such as localgovernments with greater rural areas At least there is adisparity in education quality between rural and urban areasand between western and eastern Indonesia Based onwelfare statistics [7] the percentage of the population whoare aged above 15 years that literate is 9749 in urban areasand 9313 in rural areas e school enrollment ratio of thepopulation aged between 16 and 18 years is 7521 in urbanareas and 6771 in rural areas e net enrollment ratio ofthe population for senior high school is 6433 in urbanareas and 5606 in rural areas Azzizah [8] point out theapparent gap of education among the eastern and westernprovinces in Indonesia using the dummy regression analysisand the most influencing factor was the poverty rate

e report [9] showed that the Indonesian children andyouth who do not have sufficient access to education are inremote and isolated areas and in poor communities isreport was based on data of the National SocioeconomicSurvey 2015 which stated that the composition of the groupof out-of-school children (OOSC) of elementary school agewas 81 from rural areas (based on location) 49 frompoor families (based on wealth) and 40 from Papua (basedon region)

e fourth sustainable development goal (SDG) oneducation is to ensure inclusive and equitable education andto promote lifelong learning opportunities for all One of thetargets is ldquoby 2030 to eliminate gender disparities in edu-cation and ensure equal access to all levels of education andvocational training for the vulnerable including personswith disabilities indigenous peoples and children in vul-nerable situationsrdquo One of the disparity indices is rural-

urban As reported in [10] youths aged between 20 and 24years living in rural areas in 101 low- and middle-incomecountries have on average an education period 26 yearsshorter than do those in urban areas Indonesia is one ofthese countries In Indonesia rural-urban disparities arewidely prevalent across indicators in each target of the fourthSDG since poverty is still concentrated in rural areas [9]e report [5] shows that children born in selected ruralareas in Indonesia whomigrated to an urban area as childrenwere found to have attained three more years of educationthan those who did not migrate is shows that migrationfrom rural to urban areas can increase educational attain-ment due to the low access to education in rural areas

erefore some educational research studies have fo-cused on rural areas to provide more specific reviews Yueet al [11] researched policy and trends in rural educationfrom preschool to high school in China over 40 years from1978 to 2018 Rural schools continually improved in allaspects In 1980 only a small proportion of rural childrenattended preschool but in 2014 more than 90 of ruralchildren attended preschool Carrascal et al [12] focusedtheir research on rural primary schools in Mixco Guate-mala ey developed the ECO Kit as an effective teach-ingndashlearning tool that contributed to improving the visualliteracy and creativity of students In Finland digitalcommunication is being more understandable by ruralteachers than in the urban area and promoted parent-teacher partnership in rural better than did parents in theurban area [13] Cheng et al [14] documented the learningproblems of disadvantaged students in rural areas in Taiwane results showed that in rural elementary schools theeducation levels of most of the parents were below thecollege level students had low motivation and the ordinarystudents and disadvantaged students indeed showed dif-ferences Azzizah [8] found that poverty had a huge influ-ence on the rate of school enrollment particularly inIndonesiarsquos eastern province based on Joseph Nkurunzizarsquosanalysis (hindawi 2012) that students from very poor peoplehave lower odds of attendance in school Based on [9]poverty in Indonesia is still concentrated in rural areas

East Java is one of the provinces in western Indonesiaand it is relatively more advanced than others In East Javaprovince the OOSC rate in the primary school level is only7 while in junior secondary it is 12 and in seniorsecondary it is 14 ese numbers are relatively lowcompared to those in other provinces However one of theregencies in East Java has 100 underdeveloped regionsnamely Sumenep Regency [15] e percentage of poorpeople in Sumenep Regency is 1962 which is the fourthhighest in East Java and the human development index is6428 the fourth lowest in East Java [16]

e principle of ESD is that no child is left behind andemphasizes equity of education by focusing on eliminatingdisparities among regions and socioeconomic groupserefore in this study the factors related to educationquality in Sumenep Regency were explored through thespatial autoregressive model with latent variables (SAR-LVs) Sumenep is a regency with rural characteristics It isnecessary to study the modeling of education quality

specifically rural cases to get deeper and more specificinformation

For this modeling the SAR-LVs approach was usedsince it involves spatial data and latent variables Manystudies on education have involved spatial data Gille [17]tested the existence of education spillovers in a rural contextin India using fixed-effects vector decomposition consistingof the three-stage estimation e result was that one ad-ditional year of education of neighborsrsquo increases farmproductivity by 2 Gao et al [18] analyzed the disparity incompulsory education based on the perspective of the im-balanced spatial distribution using spatial autocorrelationmethods Xu et al [19] calculated the index of geographicaccessibility available opportunity and economic afford-ability to describe the social spatial accessibility In all thesestudies spatial data were used but the spillover effect wasnot tested erefore the aim of the study herein was toperform modeling of education quality that involves spatialdata and latent variables and to test the spillover effect ecase study takes Sumenep Regency since Sumenep has thecharacteristics of an archipelago and multiethnic as aminiature of Indonesia but represents rural areas

Sumenep Regency is one of the regencies in East JavaProvince precisely at the eastern end of Madura Island isregion is located between 113deg32prime54Prime and 116deg16Prime48 eastlongitude and 4deg55Prime00Prime and 7deg24Prime00Primesouth latitude eregion borders Madura Straits to the south the Java Sea tothe north Pamekasan Regency to the west and the Java Seaand Flores Sea to the east Geographically Sumenep Regencyconsists of land and islands with a total area of 209346 km2namely the mainland section of 114693 km2 (5479) andthe archipelago of 94653 km2 (4521) One hundred andtwenty-six islands consisting of 48 inhabited islands and 78uninhabited islands make up the archipelago as shown inFigure 1

Sumenep Regency is divided into 27 districts 18 districtsare on the mainland and 9 districts in the island Districts onthe mainland are Ambunten Batang Batang BatuanBatuputih Bluto Dasuk Dungkek Ganding Gapura GulukGuluk Kalianget Sumenep City Lenteng MandingPasongsongan Pragaan Rubaru and Saronggi Districts inthe island are Arjasa Gayam Giligenteng KangayanMasalembo Nonggunong Raas Sapeken and Talango epopulation consists of at least six ethnic groups namelyMadura Bajo Mandar Bugis Chinese Arabic andJavanese

In 2018 the number of senior high schools in SumenepRegency was 226 consisting of 13 public schools and 213private schools e number of private schools is far morethan that of public schools describing the communityrsquosindependent participation in education It is an interestingillustration if related to the level of poverty in the SumenepRegency Sumenep Regency has 334 villages 100 of whichwere classified as disadvantaged villages [15] Based on data[16] the percentage of poor people is 1962 (the fourthhighest in East Java) and the human development index is6428 (the fourth lowest in East Java)

2 Materials and Methods

21 Research Methods is study focuses on the modelingof education quality at senior high schools using the SAR-LVs model is modeling involves the latent variables andthe sample unit is locationspatial Bollen [20] defined SEMin two models namely the measurement model and thestructural model e measurement model represents therelationship between the manifest variable and exogenouslatent variables (1) or endogenous latent variables (2) whilethe structural model describes the relationship among thelatent variables (3)

x Λx ξ + δ (1)

y Λy η + εlowast (2)

η Blowastη + Γ ξ + ζ (3)

where η is a vector of an endogenous latent variable ξ is avector of an latent variable Blowast is a coefficient matrix thatshows the effect of an endogenous latent variable to anotherendogenous variables Γ is a coefficient matrix which showsthe effect of ξ to η ζ is a vector of random error y and x arethe vectors of observed variableΛy andΛx are the coefficientmatrices which show the relationship of y to η and x to ξ andεlowast and δ are the vectors of measurements of y and x re-spectively where εlowast sim NB(0Θεlowast) δ sim NA(0Θδ) and Θδand Θεlowast are the covariant-variant matrices

Anselin wrote the spatial autoregressive model (SAR)[21] as shown in equation (4)

ylowast λWylowast + Xlowastβ + ε (4)

where ylowast is a vector of a spatially lagged dependent variableXlowast is a matrix of an exogenous variable λ is a spatialautoregressive coefficient ρ is a coefficient of a spatial errorβ is a vector of parameters associated with an exogenousvariable W is a matrix of spatial weight with the maindiagonal elements being zero and ε is the disturbance withε sim N(0 σ2I)

e factor score is the result of estimating the latentvariables in the measurement model via equations (1) and(2) using the weighted least square (WLS) method efactor scores for an endogenous variable and an exogenousrandom variable are given in equations (5) and (6)respectively

22 Indicator Latent Variable Model and Unit Sampleis study models the quality of education at senior highschools in Sumenep Regency Indonesia is modelinginvolves two exogenous latent variables and one endogenouslatent variable e exogenous latent variables are schoolinfrastructure and the socioeconomic condition whereas theendogenous latent variable is education quality

Indicators for the variables of education quality wereconstructed based on the study by Kemendikbud [26]Regulation in the study by Kemendiknas [27] was used todetermine the indicators for the variable of school infra-structure e indicators for each variable are shown inTable 1 Indicators are secondary data in Sumenep Fig-ure 2018 [16] and data from education office SumenepRegency 2018

e conceptual model was constructed of three latentvariables namely the education quality influenced by thesocioeconomic conditions of the community [26] and byinfrastructure facilities [28] e theoretical hypotheticalmodel was based on the conceptual model as shown inFigure 2

e observation units in this study are districts inSumenep Regency ere are 27 districts consisting of 18districts on the mainland and 9 districts on islands ereare 226 senior high schools consisting of 12 public schools1 public madrasa (Islamic school) school 72 privatenonmadrasa schools and 141 private madrasa schoolsTable 2 is a number and kind of senior high school in eachdistrict

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

specifically rural cases to get deeper and more specificinformation

For this modeling the SAR-LVs approach was usedsince it involves spatial data and latent variables Manystudies on education have involved spatial data Gille [17]tested the existence of education spillovers in a rural contextin India using fixed-effects vector decomposition consistingof the three-stage estimation e result was that one ad-ditional year of education of neighborsrsquo increases farmproductivity by 2 Gao et al [18] analyzed the disparity incompulsory education based on the perspective of the im-balanced spatial distribution using spatial autocorrelationmethods Xu et al [19] calculated the index of geographicaccessibility available opportunity and economic afford-ability to describe the social spatial accessibility In all thesestudies spatial data were used but the spillover effect wasnot tested erefore the aim of the study herein was toperform modeling of education quality that involves spatialdata and latent variables and to test the spillover effect ecase study takes Sumenep Regency since Sumenep has thecharacteristics of an archipelago and multiethnic as aminiature of Indonesia but represents rural areas

Sumenep Regency is one of the regencies in East JavaProvince precisely at the eastern end of Madura Island isregion is located between 113deg32prime54Prime and 116deg16Prime48 eastlongitude and 4deg55Prime00Prime and 7deg24Prime00Primesouth latitude eregion borders Madura Straits to the south the Java Sea tothe north Pamekasan Regency to the west and the Java Seaand Flores Sea to the east Geographically Sumenep Regencyconsists of land and islands with a total area of 209346 km2namely the mainland section of 114693 km2 (5479) andthe archipelago of 94653 km2 (4521) One hundred andtwenty-six islands consisting of 48 inhabited islands and 78uninhabited islands make up the archipelago as shown inFigure 1

Sumenep Regency is divided into 27 districts 18 districtsare on the mainland and 9 districts in the island Districts onthe mainland are Ambunten Batang Batang BatuanBatuputih Bluto Dasuk Dungkek Ganding Gapura GulukGuluk Kalianget Sumenep City Lenteng MandingPasongsongan Pragaan Rubaru and Saronggi Districts inthe island are Arjasa Gayam Giligenteng KangayanMasalembo Nonggunong Raas Sapeken and Talango epopulation consists of at least six ethnic groups namelyMadura Bajo Mandar Bugis Chinese Arabic andJavanese

In 2018 the number of senior high schools in SumenepRegency was 226 consisting of 13 public schools and 213private schools e number of private schools is far morethan that of public schools describing the communityrsquosindependent participation in education It is an interestingillustration if related to the level of poverty in the SumenepRegency Sumenep Regency has 334 villages 100 of whichwere classified as disadvantaged villages [15] Based on data[16] the percentage of poor people is 1962 (the fourthhighest in East Java) and the human development index is6428 (the fourth lowest in East Java)

2 Materials and Methods

21 Research Methods is study focuses on the modelingof education quality at senior high schools using the SAR-LVs model is modeling involves the latent variables andthe sample unit is locationspatial Bollen [20] defined SEMin two models namely the measurement model and thestructural model e measurement model represents therelationship between the manifest variable and exogenouslatent variables (1) or endogenous latent variables (2) whilethe structural model describes the relationship among thelatent variables (3)

x Λx ξ + δ (1)

y Λy η + εlowast (2)

η Blowastη + Γ ξ + ζ (3)

where η is a vector of an endogenous latent variable ξ is avector of an latent variable Blowast is a coefficient matrix thatshows the effect of an endogenous latent variable to anotherendogenous variables Γ is a coefficient matrix which showsthe effect of ξ to η ζ is a vector of random error y and x arethe vectors of observed variableΛy andΛx are the coefficientmatrices which show the relationship of y to η and x to ξ andεlowast and δ are the vectors of measurements of y and x re-spectively where εlowast sim NB(0Θεlowast) δ sim NA(0Θδ) and Θδand Θεlowast are the covariant-variant matrices

Anselin wrote the spatial autoregressive model (SAR)[21] as shown in equation (4)

ylowast λWylowast + Xlowastβ + ε (4)

where ylowast is a vector of a spatially lagged dependent variableXlowast is a matrix of an exogenous variable λ is a spatialautoregressive coefficient ρ is a coefficient of a spatial errorβ is a vector of parameters associated with an exogenousvariable W is a matrix of spatial weight with the maindiagonal elements being zero and ε is the disturbance withε sim N(0 σ2I)

e factor score is the result of estimating the latentvariables in the measurement model via equations (1) and(2) using the weighted least square (WLS) method efactor scores for an endogenous variable and an exogenousrandom variable are given in equations (5) and (6)respectively

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

22 Indicator Latent Variable Model and Unit Sampleis study models the quality of education at senior highschools in Sumenep Regency Indonesia is modelinginvolves two exogenous latent variables and one endogenouslatent variable e exogenous latent variables are schoolinfrastructure and the socioeconomic condition whereas theendogenous latent variable is education quality

Indicators for the variables of education quality wereconstructed based on the study by Kemendikbud [26]Regulation in the study by Kemendiknas [27] was used todetermine the indicators for the variable of school infra-structure e indicators for each variable are shown inTable 1 Indicators are secondary data in Sumenep Fig-ure 2018 [16] and data from education office SumenepRegency 2018

e conceptual model was constructed of three latentvariables namely the education quality influenced by thesocioeconomic conditions of the community [26] and byinfrastructure facilities [28] e theoretical hypotheticalmodel was based on the conceptual model as shown inFigure 2

e observation units in this study are districts inSumenep Regency ere are 27 districts consisting of 18districts on the mainland and 9 districts on islands ereare 226 senior high schools consisting of 12 public schools1 public madrasa (Islamic school) school 72 privatenonmadrasa schools and 141 private madrasa schoolsTable 2 is a number and kind of senior high school in eachdistrict

24 9eoretical Hypothesis A hypothetical model wasproposed as shown in Figure 2 that shows the path hy-potheses in which socioeconomic conditions and schoolinfrastructure directly affect the quality of education espatial effect is to be tested since observation units are lo-cations Furthermore the following hypotheses wereproposed

Hypothesis H1 there is a spatial effectHypothesis H2 school infrastructure has direct effectson the quality of educationHypothesis H3 socioeconomic conditions have directeffects on the quality of education

3 Results and Discussion

31 Results e review of the measurement model wasbased on convergent validity composite reliability and thesignificance test Convergent validity was measured by theloading factors that are the coefficients of correlation be-tween the indicators and their latent constructs Indicatorsthat have high loading factors contribute to explaining latentconstructs more Table 3 shows the loading factor value ofeach indicator

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

231 Evaluating the Measurement Model Evaluation of themeasurement model is conducted to ensure that indicatorsare constructing their latent variables properly is workused smart-PLS

232 Estimating the Latent Variable Factor scores wereobtained based on equations (5) and (6) and calculated usinga MATLAB program

233 Setting the Spatial Weights e spatial weighting usedthe Queen contiguity method In Queen contiguity Wij isdefined as 1 for an entity where the common side or thecommon vertex meets the region of concern and Wij isdefined as 0 for other regions [29]

234 Modeling the SAR-LVs e model was constructedbased on equation (7) with one endogenous variable twoexogenous variables and 27 observation units the SAR-LVsmodel can be rewritten as11139541113957ηi 1113954b0 + 1113954λ1113936

236 Estimating the Parameters e parameters of theSAR-LVs model were obtained based on equation (10) andcalculated using a MATLAB program

237 Testing the Statistical Significance e value of theparameter significance test is as given in equation (11) andwas calculated using a MATLAB program e statistic of cfollows the asymptotic distribution of F1(nminus1) If cgt F1(nminus1)then it has a spatial effect

24 9eoretical Hypothesis A hypothetical model wasproposed as shown in Figure 2 that shows the path hy-potheses in which socioeconomic conditions and schoolinfrastructure directly affect the quality of education espatial effect is to be tested since observation units are lo-cations Furthermore the following hypotheses wereproposed

Hypothesis H1 there is a spatial effectHypothesis H2 school infrastructure has direct effectson the quality of educationHypothesis H3 socioeconomic conditions have directeffects on the quality of education

3 Results and Discussion

31 Results e review of the measurement model wasbased on convergent validity composite reliability and thesignificance test Convergent validity was measured by theloading factors that are the coefficients of correlation be-tween the indicators and their latent constructs Indicatorsthat have high loading factors contribute to explaining latentconstructs more Table 3 shows the loading factor value ofeach indicator

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

Some references stated that a factor loading of 050 wasconsidered to have sufficient validation to explain the latentvariable [30] Sharma [31] mentioned that researchers hadused cutoff values of factor loading as low as 040 All in-dicators in Table 3 are more than 040 so it is said to besufficient to explain all the latent variables of educationquality school infrastructure and socioeconomic condition

Reliability testing was carried out to prove the accuracyand consistency of instruments in measuring latent vari-ables In this study the reliability was testedassessed usingcomposite reliability Generally the composite reliabilityvalue of greater than 06 is acceptable [32] Table 4 sum-marizes the results of the composite reliability test of threelatent variables

As shown in Table 4 all the composite reliability valuesof each latent variable are more than 06 It indicates that alllatent variables are reliable or indicators are consistent inmeasuring each of the latent variables

In the SEM PLS method the significance of the modelcannot be tested because the data distribution is unknownerefore the bootstrapping resamplingmethod was used to

conduct the significance test Table 5 shows a summary ofthe significance test results for the measurement model withα 10

As can be seen from the previous table the only invalidindicator is X21 representing the ratio of the number ofhouseholds running a home industry or having a shop athome to the total number of households However ingeneral these indicators can still be used to construct latentvariables

e result of the identification of the spatial effect on themodel of the education led to the SAR-LVs model at thesignificance level α 5 e results of the parameters es-timation and significance test are summarized in Table 6

In general the SAR-LVs model for the education qualityof the senior high school is11139541113957ηi 96604 minus 00021113936

32 Discussion ere are three items to be discussednamely the spatial effect and the influence of the schoolinfrastructure and socioeconomic conditions on the qualityof education e autoregressive spatial coefficient signifi-cantly effects at the 5 significance level is means thatthere is a correlation between the education quality of thesenior high schools in one district and the one in othercontiguous districts However the autoregressive spatialcoefficient is negative It indicates the opposite of thecommon spillover effect ie the districts with a highereducation quality are supported by or gains a spillover effectfrom the neighboring districts with lower education qualitye opposite of the spillover effect can be illustrated as thephenomenon ldquothere is sugar so there are antsrdquo ie there aremigrations of good students to districts with a highernumber of high-quality schools

e following social phenomenon can explain this sit-uation ere is a tendency among Indonesian people tosend their children to their favorite schools to ensure a goodquality education even though the schools are located farfrom their home In urban areas there are many favoriteschoolsmdashnot only public schools but even many privateschools that are preferred by the community because of theirgood quality In rural areas particularly Sumenep Regencythe favorite schools are mostly public schools Districts thathave many favorite schools tend to have many applicants orprospective students and they select the best students in-cluding the ones from neighboring districts Consequentlyschools of good quality tend to be in demand by thecommunity even in other districts especially the directlyneighboring districts On the contrary schools in the directlyneighboring districts lose good students from their owndistrict or gain students of poorer quality from other districtssince the quality of new students is one of the determinants

of education quality As a result of this phenomenon dis-tricts are classified into two categories namely receiving andlosing districts e receiving districts are districts whosenumber of new students of senior high school is more thanthe number of junior high school graduates in the same yearOn the opposite the losing districts are the ones that losejunior high school graduates Figure 3 shows both districtcategories including the directions of the student migrationis figure is created using the number of new students ofsenior high school and the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep Regency in 2018 according to theCentral Bureau of Statistics (BPS) [16]

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that

students of schools with poor infrastructure earned between25 and 57 (for public and private nonreligious schools)less than those of schools with adequate infrastructure eschool infrastructure in Sumenep Regency directly influ-ences the quality of education It becomes an important partto be prepared carefully and continuously by the localgovernment so that the ESD can be achieved

Socioeconomic condition was found to not have a sig-nificant impact on the quality of education Azziza [8]revealed that socioeconomic inequality caused educationaldisparities in eastern and western Indonesia but the researchdid not explain the actual situation in the regions InSumenep Regency the number of private schools hasreached 9425 of the total (213 of 226 schools) of allschools there 531 is public 044 is public madrasaschools 3186 is private nonmadrasa schools and 6239is private madrasa schools Private schools as a represen-tation of the communityrsquos independent participation ineducational services reflect the communityrsquos socioeconomiccondition Meanwhile based on statistical data [36] eco-nomic growth and the gross regional domestic product(GRDP) per capita in Sumenep are below the averageeconomic growth and GRDP of regencies in East Java Sari[34] argued that in general private schools are inferior interms of quality and facilities A large number of privateschools in the Sumenep regency do not reflect yet the so-cioeconomic condition of the local community ey stillrely on the SOB fund Nurkholis [37] suggested that thequality of madrasa schools was still low when compared withother schools for the same education level In Sumenep themajority of senior high schools are private madrasa schoolsese schools were built by the community to poor qualitystandards since religious idealism was prioritizedereforein this model the socioeconomic variable has no effect to thequality of education

4 Conclusions

emain conclusions of this study are as follows (1) there isa negative spillover effect due to the migration of goodstudents from districts to the others with higher educationquality (2) the school infrastructure directly influences thequality of education and (3) socioeconomic conditions donot have a significant impact on the quality of educationis study recommends that it is necessary to standardizethe quality of all schools especially private schools inSumenep Regency so that the zoning system can functionwell In the standardization process the role of the centralgovernment is crucial e central government shouldprovide guidance or assistance to the local governments inachieving the desired outcomes when implementing thezoning system such as by accelerating the provision ofteachers facilities and infrastructure Furthermore theeducation quality of rural private schools needs to be im-proved since this also means providing better education forchildren from low-income families to achieve equality ofaccess and quality of education for all children In that wayESD can be carried out properly Research for specific re-gions (eg in this case Sumenep Regency) should be

conducted to obtain more specific information about theproblems that are present and certainly distinct from thosein other regions e study of specific cases can be used as abenchmark for making policy Each policy thus madeprovides solutions that are relevant to regional problems andcapabilities

Examples for receiving and losing districts are SumenepCity (Kotasumenep) and Saronggi respectively (Figure 3)Based on the BPS data [16] the number of junior high schoolgraduates in Sumenep City was 1582 and the number ofnew students of senior high school was 2041 It means thatSumenep City received students for the high school levelfrom its neighboring districts Referring to (12) there is anegative spillover in terms of good students input toSumenep City from its neighboring districts namely Sar-onggi Rubaru Kalianget Manding Batuan and GapuraSumenep City has three public senior high schools that arestrongly favored by the community or by students while itsthree neighboring districts Saronggi Rubaru and Mandingdo not have any public schools e other neighboringdistricts Kalianget Batuan and Gapura have only onepublic school is condition stimulates the migration ofstudents who have graduated from junior high school in theneighboring districts to register for senior high schools inSumenep City In other words the high schools in SumenepCity always have the privilege of choosing the best studentsIn general the favorite public schools in Sumenep regencyare dominated by people of a good economic level who couldsupport improvements in the quality of schools

As an example of the losing districts Saronggi has nopublic school and has five neighboring districts Based ondata [16] Saronggi had 305 junior high school graduates and71 new senior high school students in 2018 It lost seniorhigh school students due to migration to the neighboringdistricts all of which have favorite public schools (Figure 3)e remaining 71 new senior high school students registeredfor three private madrasa schools in Saronggi

e studentsrsquo migration in Sumenep City and Saronggidistricts show that students compete to get registered forfavorite or good quality schools It also reveals the inequalityof the school quality since not all students can have access toschools with a good quality e urbanization correlatedwith gender equality in education because the urban pop-ulation is generally also more receptive to modern views onfemale education for 57 developing countries in 1970ndash2010[33] To eliminate school favoritism the Indonesian gov-ernment issued a zoning system policy through the Ministerof Education and Culture Regulation No 17 of 2017 No 14of 2018 and No 51 of 2018eMinistry argues that studentadmission via the zoning system will improve access toeducation services in public schools for all and removefavorite schools as a basis for school selection However thezoning system policy is only for public schools

Sumenep Regency implemented a zoning system policystarting in the middle of 2018 Sumenep has only 13 publicsenior high schools out of a total of 226 senior high schoolswhich are spread across 11 districts ese 13 public seniorhigh schools are not enough to accommodate all senior highschool students in Sumenep As a result many privateschools have emerged as community initiations usprivate schools play an important role in bridging the gapand providing access to education in rural areas Howeverprivate schools are generally inferior in terms of educationquality and facilities [34] As many as 677 of privateschools in Sumenep Regency has a C accreditation or noteven accredited e standardization of private and publicschools is very important in order to obtain uniform qualityamong schools especially when this zoning system is ap-plied If a public school is unable to accommodate students

in a district then a private school with almost the samequality will be able to accommodate them

e result of this modeling describes the influence of theschool infrastructure variable as follows each level of schoolinfrastructure improvement is followed by an increase of23121 in the quality of education in a district is meansthat indicators of the school infrastructure variable based onregulations by the Ministry of National Education arepositively correlated to indicators of the education qualityvariable based on the strategic planning of education for2015ndash2019 is finding is supported by the research by Bediand Garg [35] where the effectiveness of private versuspublic schools in Indonesia based on labor market earningswas studied Schools were classified into four different typesnamely public private nonreligious private Islamic andprivate Christian schools One of the results revealed that
