Testimonials
"We felt at home since the beginning because people were very nice and received in such a nice way that we felt like we were back in Colombia. We absolutely loved the academic level that Jaco saw in BSJ during his enrolment exams. We are very glad that every passing day we reassured that we made the best choice by entering BSJ."

The school has a real community feel and the combination of Expat children and Indonesian children creates a strong culture.

We believe that is utterly significant that the school sticks to the values that we as a family consider to be important.

When we came to BSJ, the welcome was just so incredibly warm!

I was lucky to be taught by some really amazing teachers...(who) taught me to think for myself and form my own opinions.

When I have children, I'll also send my kids to BIS for sure. Because I think it's only fair that I give them the same opportunities that my parents gave me.

"I know it was the right decision (to choose BSJ) because both of my daughters were very happy, and they will definitely miss the school. I cannot ask for more (than that)!"
