About this school
The Intercultural School of Bogor (ISB) began in 1974 as the Bogor Expatriate School (BES), set up to educate expatriate children living in and around Bogor. With support from donor partners, the founders acquired a building and grounds in Taman Kencana, a tree-lined heritage area near the centre of Bogor. In 2002 it became one of the first IB World Schools in Indonesia, and after the government education reforms of 2017 it took its current name and added the Indonesian national curriculum alongside the IB.
ISB is an English-medium school with a strong community spirit for children aged 2 to 15. Its sections are:
- Early Learning Centre
- Lower Primary and Upper Primary, following the IB Primary Years Programme
- Middle School
Teaching is differentiated to match each child's pace, with an integrated "Mind, Heart, Hands" approach and a focus on teamwork, communication and literacy. The campus includes a dedicated ELC building, a multipurpose resource centre, a playing field and outdoor courts. Over the decades the school has educated children from many countries.
