About Us Discover the leading British international school in South Jakarta
Discover Life at ISJ
An ISJ education is an adventure. Our mission is to support our pupils as they become confident and creative learners, providing them with a safe, vibrant space to grow and thrive.
We don't just teach subjects; we cultivate a mindset. From the classroom to our leafy outdoor spaces, our students are encouraged to take risks, develop critical thinking, and embrace the joy of discovery. Whether they are mastering a new language, exploring complex sciences, or performing on stage, we ensure every child has the tools to make the most of every opportunity.
A Community of Curious Minds
While we hold ourselves to the highest academic standards, the heartbeat of ISJ is our community. Here, children are known by name, their unique talents are celebrated, and their voices are heard. We foster an environment where ambition meets empathy, preparing our boys and girls not just for their next school, but for a meaningful life in a global society.
See for Yourself
The best way to experience our unique spirit is to see it for yourself. Our admissions team is eager to show you how our pupils learn, play, and lead within our first-class facilities in the heart of Jakarta.
The School Charter
The School Charter, set out below, is provided by The Schools Trust. It sets the direction upon which the school grows and measures its success.
-
First and foremost, school should be fun. Confident, happy pupils who enjoy their time at school are more likely to succeed at school and in life.
-
Strong academic achievement is at the core of our mission. Starting with a focus on numeracy and literacy, we encourage and support pupils to achieve to a high level. Excellent academic results and entry to well-regarded universities around the world are expected.
-
We encourage and support pupils to explore pursuits outside academics. While we provide a broad range of opportunities, pupils have the chance to develop a particular interest to a depth and level at which they may excel.
-
A fundamental role of the school is to develop pupils’ character. Personal traits we admire, such as curiosity, endeavour, and respect for others, are cultivated in small ways and large through the actions and behaviour modelled by adults every day of school life.
-
The school is a challenging and rewarding place to work. Calculated risk-taking in pursuit of the development of the school is encouraged. Meaningful professional development is supported. We expect to maintain a reputation as a place to develop one’s career.
-
The school campus is developed to provide the space, facilities, and resources to support the educational objectives of the school. We aim to provide a welcoming environment that celebrates pupil achievement. Facilities are of a high quality and are well maintained.
