BIS Jakarta is indeed an international school

For British and other overseas companies investing in Indonesia, the availability of first-class educational facilities is a necessity in order to attract key personnel to live and work in the country.

At the British International School (BIS), set in the green suburb of Bintaro, facilities of the highest quality are matched to an experienced faculty recruited mainly from the United Kingdom, with a sprinkling of staff from other parts of the world.

Although using a British curriculum, BIS is truly international, serving a student base which normally boasts over 40 nationalities.

BIS offers an "all-through" education, from age 3 years to 18 years, on a single-site campus, culminating in the awards of the General Certificate of Secondary Education and the International Baccalaureate Diploma at ages 16 and 18 respectively. The latter provides access to university education in almost any country worldwide.

BIS has shared with the business community the stress of recent events in Jakarta. However, the school has great confidence in the future of Indonesia and, since June 1, is operating as usual.

Enrollment at the school is open to all foreign nationals temporarily resident in Indonesia. In these times of financial restraint, BIS offers excellent value in terms of both cost and quality, with current fees ranging from US$5,300 to $10,000 per year.

Boarding facilities are also available for children whose families are based in more remote areas of Indonesia.
