British School Jakarta

The British School Jakarta, originally known as the British International School, was established in 1973 with support from the British Embassy to provide education for internationally mobile students in Jakarta. The school relocated in 1994 to its current 45-acre campus in Bintaro, and was renamed British School Jakarta in 2014 to comply with Indonesian government regulations prohibiting the use of the word 'international' in school names.

At BSJ, wellbeing is not a programme that sits alongside learning; it is the foundation that makes meaningful learning possible. Learning goes beyond the classroom, challenging students to think critically, collaborate confidently, and apply their knowledge to real-world contexts.

BSJ is home to more than 1,390 students from over 50 nationalities. The school offers more than 300 extracurricular activities across sports and the arts, and its average IB Diploma Programme point score is described as above the global average of 30.

Spread across a 45-acre estate in Bintaro, just 7km southwest of central Jakarta, the campus includes a full-sized covered multi-purpose football pitch, tennis courts, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a Sports Centre with a climbing wall, a gymnasium, a dance studio, and a theatre complex with a 700-plus seat auditorium.
