About this school
Indonesian Creative School (ICS) opened in Pekanbaru, Riau, in January 2009 with kindergarten and elementary classes, adding junior high in 2010. It moved to a larger building in 2012 and in 2013 was licensed as a Cambridge school (centre ID 325). ICS describes itself as the only SPK school in Pekanbaru and has more than 400 students.
The curriculum blends Indonesia's national curriculum with Cambridge programmes:
- Early years and elementary, with Cambridge Primary Checkpoint in English, maths and science
- Middle school, with the Lower Secondary Checkpoint in Grade 9
- High school, where students take Cambridge IGCSE in at least six subjects
Character education is built around the Six Pillars of Character (trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship) together with social-emotional learning. Facilities include science and computer labs, separate primary and secondary libraries, a music room, a multi-function hall, sports halls and a musholla. Extracurricular activities cover sports, arts, music and clubs, and the school celebrates its multicultural community with events such as Lunar New Year.
