British International School · Pondok Indah, South Jakarta
A British Education in the Heart of Jakarta
Your child's teacher knows what they had for breakfast, which friendships are thriving, and exactly where they are in long division. At ISJ, every child is known — by name, by character, and by what they need to flourish.
ISJ follows the English National Curriculum from age 2 through to A-Levels, taught by teachers recruited from the UK's leading independent schools. ISJ is part of The Schools Trust — a UK charity whose schools are ranked 1st and 2nd across 200+ British schools internationally for A-Level and GCSE results.

Beyond the Classroom
Life at ISJ
On a typical Wednesday, a five-year-old finishes swimming and heads to Mandarin. A Year 6 pupil rehearses for the school play. A Year 8 is on the football pitch before an afternoon of science in the lab. Sport, music, drama, and art are part of every child's week — not optional extras.
The Pondok Indah campus has a 25-metre swimming pool, a full-size football pitch, a theatre, and dedicated creative arts spaces. Each year, older pupils travel to Woolverstone Hall in Suffolk, England — an 87-acre estate where they experience British boarding school life first-hand.
"A warm, family-like environment. The school's strength lies in the kindness of the teachers. My children love all the staff."
