About this school
Bina Bangsa School Semarang is one of six campuses of Bina Bangsa School (BBS), a group that began in 2001 in Kebon Jeruk, Jakarta, as one of the first schools in Indonesia to adopt the Singapore-based Cambridge curriculum alongside a strong Chinese-language programme. The group now has around 4,000 students, 500 teachers and campuses in Jakarta, Bandung, Malang, Semarang and Balikpapan, and aims to combine Western education and technology with Eastern culture and values, grounded in the Word of God.
The Semarang campus runs from preschool to junior college. Preschool is an English–Mandarin bilingual programme for ages 2 to 6 drawing on Singapore's Kindergarten Curriculum Framework and the UK EYFS; secondary students prepare for IGCSE and junior college students for Cambridge A Level.
The school makes use of its setting near the Central Java mountains, with regular field trips from preschool upward, a mountaineering club and a student-run environmental group. Group-wide programmes include HSK Chinese exams (BBS is an authorised centre), coding and MakeX robotics, olympiad coaching, an entrepreneurship fair, an orchestra concert and student exchanges.
