The British School Jakarta (BSJ) is a British International School with a distinctive British heritage, providing outstanding education for 1,400 students aged 2-18. One of the leading international schools in South East Asia, BSJ is a vibrant global community, welcoming students and families from over 50 different nationalities.  BSJ takes huge pride in the fact that it is a non-profit |non-franchise educational establishment enabling it to carve a clear path in learning and teaching.

Founded in 1973 with support from the British Embassy, British School Jakarta has a rich history of growth and transformation. From its origins as 'The British School' to becoming 'The British International School' (BIS) and a Foundation (Yayasan) in 1976, BSJ has continuously evolved. In 1990, the school relocated to its 44-acre Bintaro campus, officially opened by Prince Edward in 1994. In 2014, BSJ adopted its current name to comply with Indonesian regulations on the use of 'international' in school names, while maintaining its commitment to providing a globally recognised education and since then, implementing a world class wellbeing strategic framework.
