Ki Hadjar Dewantoro, original name Raden Mas (Lord) Suwardi Surjaningrat (born May
2, 1889, Yogyakarta, Javadied April 26, 1959, Yogyakarta), founder of the Taman Siswa school
system, an influential and widespread network of schools that encouraged modernization but also
promoted indigenous Indonesian culture.

Dewantoro was born into a noble family of Yogyakarta and attended a Dutch-sponsored
medical school but failed to complete the course. Active in the nationalist cause, he belonged to a
faction favouring direct action and the use of Western methods to destroy the power of the
Dutch. He was also a member of the Bandung chapter of Sarekat Islām (“Islamic Association”)
and a founder of the Socialist Indische Partij (“Indies Party”). An article he wrote during this
period, “If I Were a Netherlander,” published in the Indische Partij‟s De Express, led to his exile
to the Netherlands between 1913 and 1918.

In the Netherlands he became converted to the idea of using Indonesian cultural traditions
to cope with the problems posed by Dutch colonial rule. He felt that education was the best
means to strengthen Indonesians, and he was deeply influenced by the progressive theories of the
Italian educational reformer Maria Montessori and by the Indian poet and philosopher
Rabindranath Tagore.

The first Taman Siswa schools were established in Java in July 1922. Instruction, carried
on informally, emphasized traditional skills and values of Javanese life, particularly music and
dance. Western subjects were taught, too, in order to help students cope with the demands of
modern life. Overcoming initial official hostility, the Taman Siswa schools had spread
throughout the archipelago and were by the late 1930s subsidized by the Dutch colonial
government. Based on traditional Javanese concepts, the Taman Siswa schools appealed
primarily to those segments of Indonesian society termed abangan, in which the Islamic faith is
less deeply entrenched. Dewantoro continued his leadership of Taman Siswa after the war and
upon his death was acclaimed a national hero.
