Great Value
A Focus On Outstanding Educational Value

25+ Years
A Proud History of Success
At SIS Group our track record of academic excellence and unique, personalised learning approach speak for themselves.
Welcome to SIS South Jakarta
SIS South Jakarta
is a brand new international school with a proven track record of academic success our focus is on providing students with the 21st century skills they will need for tomorrow.
Introducing SIS South Jakarta, the newest intercultural school in Indonesia!
What do families that care passionately about their children’s future need from education in the 2020s?
SIS South Jakarta is launching with three unique and innovative programs to meet those needs.
Technology continues to change lives, businesses and careers and there is a lot more just around the corner. Will your children be ready to take advantage of those new opportunities? Will they have developed the right skills and mindset?
At SIS South Jakarta, every student will be engaged in a robotics program which will teach them basic coding and design techniques while inspiring them to be creative, develop logical thinking and problem solving skills and have a lot of fun while doing it! The benefits are much wider than preparation for computer science courses – this is about developing a deep understanding for how technology can be used to transform any career they might choose.
Lack of confidence in English is a key reason why some students are cautious about going to an English immersion school. At SIS South Jakarta, we believe that it is the school’s job to support the learning of our students without the need for tutoring agencies. Our comprehensive new English as a Second or other Language (ESOL) Program supports students of all ability levels to develop confidence in reading, writing, listening and speaking English while ensuring that they are fully supported to make good progress through all their other subjects at the same time. We cater for all English language abilities from man native English speakers to brand new learners so no one feels awkward!
Academic learning should never be at the expense of values. Our Religious Centre and studies, provides not only a place for prayers but for learning about Islam and receiving counselling from our own full time Muslim educator. We also have dedicated spaces for Christian, Catholic and Buddhist students along with their own mentors.
Religious studies is not the only context in which values are taught. Our form teachers spend time every day teaching and reinforcing universal principles of kindness, fairness and respect in homeroom times and exciting assemblies focused on social and emotional skills.
This exciting new school is the result of the complete transformation of Singapore Intercultural School Bona Vista, which has a proud 20 year record of high quality education backed by the SIS Group of Schools with 11 schools in Asia.
Parents will continue to be confident that their children will receive the high quality education that SIS is famous for, using a curriculum that provides the best pathways to international universities, scholarships and high quality friendships from around the world. Although rigorous, we believe students should be inspired to learn rather than just endlessly tested. Although we are passionate about the basics of English, Indonesian, Math and Science, we also believe that co-curricular and sporting activities as well as interesting subject choices can be just as important for developing your child’s strengths and resilience.
The previous campus in a very accessible part of South Jakarta is being transformed with our new:
- Design Technology Makerspace for Robotics
- Islamic Studies Centre
- ESOL Language Laboratory
- Completely new indoor / outdoor gym and canteen
- New Art Room
We have some special opportunities for new parents wanting to enrol their children in this new and dynamic school in South Jakarta. We believe that the cost of education should be as accessible as possible to as many people as possible.

The Primary Curriculum aligns itself with the Singaporean Curriculum which focuses on the three learning domains: Life Skills, Knowledge Skills and Subject Based Learning which ensures the acquisition of knowledge and values and competencies to face the challenges of the 21st century.
Characteristics
The curriculum aims to develop the whole child, not just academic abilities. The focus is on equipping children with the necessary social skills and academic knowledge so that learning is engaging and meaningful and can be related to real life experiences. Teachers use student-centred approaches when planning lessons showing awareness of prior learning and assess pupils’ progress formally and informally. Inter-disciplinary projects feature in the curriculum and allow students to explore a range of questions using a cross-curricular approach.
Subjects
The Primary Curriculum is subject based and the core subjects taught are English, Mathematics, Science and Chinese. In Lower Primary these subjects are taught by Form Teachers and in Upper Primary more subjects are taught by specialist teachers. Bahasa Indonesia is also an important part of the curriculum as well as Information and Communication Technology, Social Studies, Physical Education, Health Education, Arts and Crafts, Music, PPKN and Religion.
Outcomes
On completing the primary stage of education, we expect the students to understand and respond to a range of situations confidently and to have an awareness of the importance of respecting people from a range of cultures and countries. Students should understand the important of processes and systems and be able to apply their knowledge to a range of subjects, taking pride in their work and demonstrating that they are independent and confident learners. Students should be aware of the importance of their own nationality whilst thinking globally about a range of issues and their impact on the world. Students will know how to communicate effectively and work as a team and how to maintain the ‘family ethos’ of SIS South Jakarta.
Secondary
The SIS Secondary School Curriculum adopts both the Singaporean and the Cambridge University programme. This programme is for students from the age group of 13 – 16 years old. The students are made familiar with a broad range of experiences. Download Brochure

The SIS Secondary School Curriculum adopts both the Singaporean and the Cambridge University programme. This programme is for students from the age group of 13 – 16 years old. The students are made familiar with a broad range of experiences. The programme also encourages greater interaction and looks to students making the best bonds and strong friendships for life.
General characteristics of the SIS Secondary Curriculum
The Secondary programme builds on the foundation of the early primary years. It also looks to bringing out each student’s individual interest and liking for the various subject matters. The Syllabus is streamlined without diluting students’ preparedness for higher education. This frees up time for our students to focus on core knowledge and life skills, and to provide greater space for flexibility in carrying out school-based activities in the curriculum. SIS offers a comprehensive Community Service Programme where the students engage in deliberating, planning, implementing, and reflecting on their Community Service, thereby sustaining high quality service learning. Secondary and JC students are required to perform a fixed number of hours of community service. Most international colleges generally make Community Service an essential part of their entry requirements.

Lower Secondary students (Secondary 1 and 2) are enrolled in the following subjects: English Language/ ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages); Chinese Language/ Indonesian Language/ French/XESOL (Extra English for Speakers of Other Languages); Mathematics; Science; Computer Science; Geography; History; Literature; Art and Design; Physical Education; Music and Research Education.

The Diploma Programme: preparing students for success in higher education and to be active participants in a global society
What is the IB Diploma Programme (DP)?
The IB Diploma Programme (DP) is an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepares students, aged 16 to 19, for success at university and in life beyond. It has been designed to address the intellectual, social, emotional and physical well-being of students. The programme has gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading universities.
The curriculum
DP students must choose one course from each of five subject groups delivering a breadth of knowledge and understanding in their best language, additional language(s), individuals and societies, the sciences and mathematics. Furthermore, students must also choose either an arts course from the arts group or a second course from one of the other subject groups.
DP courses can be taken at higher level or standard level. At least three and not more than four are taken at higher level (240 teaching hours), while the remaining courses are taken at standard level (150 teaching hours).
In addition to disciplinary and interdisciplinary study, the DP features three core elements that broaden students’ educational experience and challenge them to apply their knowledge and skills.
The Diploma Programme Core
The extended essay asks students to engage in independent research through an in-depth study of a question relating to one of the DP subjects they are studying. The world studies extended essay option allows students to focus on a topic of global significance which they examine through the lens of at least two DP subjects.
Theory of knowledge (TOK) develops a coherent approach to learning that unifies the academic disciplines. In this course on critical thinking, students inquire into the nature of knowing and deepen their understanding of knowledge as a human construction.
Creativity, activity, service (CAS) emphasizes helping students to develop their own identities, in accordance with the ethical principles embodied in the IB mission statement and the IB learner profile. CAS complements a challenging academic programme in a holistic way, providing opportunities for self-determination, collaboration, accomplishment and enjoyment. It involves students in a range of activities alongside their academic studies throughout the DP. The three strands of CAS are creativity (exploring and extending ideas leading to an original or interpretive product or performance), activity (physical exertion contributing to a healthy lifestyle) and service (collaborative and reciprocal engagement with the community in response to an authentic need).
