The existing regulations in the management of education funds are only repressive and not adequate in terms of prevention which will be effective and efficient when involving technology (especially digitalization and Big Data in the education sector). The burden of this paper lies in the study, which is still normative and qualitative.

The existence of digitalization rules and Big Data in national education controlled by the Chief Digital Officer can prevent corruption in the education sector. It can be a means of checks and balances and succeed in the framework of every education policy carried out by the government, whose primary output and outcome is the use of funds targeted to education and the achievement of inclusive and equitable quality education in Indonesia by 2030.
