In June 2022 the German School Jakarta in BSD City invited long-term parent Fitri Salhuteru as special guest to the annual DSJ Education Talk. Fitri was discussing with three other DSJ parents "Why the German School Jakarta is a great choice for Indonesian parents who expect a first-class, international education for their children".

By earning the German International Abitur degree at the Deutsche Schule Jakarta, doors will open for your child around the globe, including the most prestigious ones such as Harvard, Yale, Cambridge, and Oxford. Yet we at the Deutsche Schule Jakarta strongly encourage our students to consider pursuing their undergraduate education in Germany. Not only does the Abitur guarantee admission to any German university, but students will also find that their higher education in Germany is tuition-free. With the option of selecting from over 20,000 different degree options with many taught in English, students will certainly find the right program for them. But even if they decide that Germany isn’t the right place for them to continue their education, our graduates are amply prepared to attend English-speaking universities in Australia, New Zealand, Britain, the US, the Netherlands, or Singapore.

At the German School Jakarta (DSJ), students master at least three languages: English, Indonesian, and German. The curriculum prepares them for success in both German and English-speaking universities, offering tailored language courses and a gradual introduction to German. Multilingual education at DSJ enhances cognitive flexibility, empathy, and creativity, providing significant lifelong benefits. The program emphasizes the value of learning German, providing access to top-ranked German universities and preparing students for global opportunities.

Kids today are glued to their devices. Their hands hold cell phones, not a tennis racket. Their feet recline on pillows on sofas rather than kicking a soccer ball. At the German School Jakarta, we’re seeking to change that. Research shows that kids should accumulate at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day to achieve optimal health. And the benefits don’t stop there. Students who move more think better. Athletes learn valuable lessons about teamwork, perseverance, and goal-setting, which apply on and off the sports field. That’s why healthy movement is a priority in the German educational model — from early childhood education all the way through graduation. We provide plenty of sports opportunities in our world-class facilities, creating a culture where physical excellence partners with academic excellence.
