Curriculum

Since May 2010 the ACG International School Jakarta is authorised to offer the IB Primary Years Programme for students aged 3–11. This programme, as well the CIE, is taught in English and is open for male and female students.[4] The PYP programme provides a solid foundation for ACG students by preparing them for the challenges they will face as they transition through the Middle and Senior Schools programme.

ACG International School Jakarta offers the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE),[3] which is the world largest provider of international education programmes and qualifications for 5–19 year olds.[7] Beginning in Year 10 students undertake a 2 year programme to prepare for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations and the AS and A level examination in Y12 and Y13 which focuses on preparation for university education.[8]
