Year Group Placement 2026/2027
At the British School Jakarta (BSJ), we place children according to their date of birth, relative to the academic year, 1 September is the start of the academic year and 31 August is the end of the year. The Grade/Year equivalents for other countries shown below are approximate due to the different starting and ending dates of the academic years in other school systems. Syllabuses and other curriculum content also differ between systems. New students are assessed subsequent to enrolment to check that the year group placement is suitable.
