A commitment to strengthening Indonesia's position as a centre of knowledge, character education, and global science was affirmed at the Jakarta Education Summit 2026, held on 15 February 2026 at the University of Indonesia (UI) Salemba campus.

As a platform for academic dialogue, the conference emphasised the urgency of integrating character education and scientific advancement in the face of global dynamics and the acceleration of digital transformation.

At the summit, JACOS was formally introduced as a new educational institution committed to developing a holistic education model that integrates character, science, and a global perspective within a comprehensive learning framework.
JACOS was established as an effort to provide education that combines academic excellence with strong character formation and a global outlook.

In the face of rapid global change, children need strong moral foundations to become leaders who benefit society."
JACOS carries the tagline "Nurturing Faith, Building Character, Inspiring Joyful Learning", which reflects the integration of moral values, science, and enjoyable learning experiences in every aspect of the educational process.
The presence of JACOS affirms that national progress cannot be separated from the foundations of ethics, integrity, and intellectual excellence working in tandem.
The Jakarta Education Summit 2026 is expected to become a consistent annual event that strengthens cross-institutional collaboration whilst positioning Indonesia as a global reference in character-based and science-driven education.
