Beacon Academy is a leading international school in Jakarta. Founded in 2007, Beacon prides itself on innovative and qualified teachers and world-class facilities. Students at Beacon learn in a warm and caring environment and are encouraged to be service-oriented leaders as they take their place as respectful and responsible citizens of the world.
Beacon is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, offering the Diploma Programme in Years 11 and 12. Our Junior and Middle School programs include Fieldwork Education’s International Primary Curriculum (IPC), International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC), and Cambridge’s Primary and Lower Secondary programs. Students in Years 9 and 10 participate in Cambridge’s International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) program.
Our mission is to provide a warm and caring environment, which promotes learning through inquiry, academic rigor, and international mindedness.
We believe in providing our learners with a warm and caring environment in which each child, through an enriched and broad curriculum, will develop an imaginative and inquiring mind. Through this sense of inquiry, we hope to enable each learner to acquire the skills necessary for the ever-changing world.
Through the development of personal moral and ethical values, each learner will possess a sense of responsibility for their behavior and the well-being of others. By developing the values of compassion, the academy aims to teach learners that are understanding of other customs and beliefs different from their own.
Through successful relationships between school, home, and the community, the academy aims to provide learners with a global outlook while being aware of local concerns. We believe that our learners, through these values, will be prepared to graduate as global citizens of tomorrow.
Our students are well-balanced and life-long learners. As a school that celebrates diversity, our students come from Indonesia and other parts of the world, including the USA, UK, Australia, South Korea, and India.
Beacon Academy started from humble beginnings with 23 students in Primary 1 in a refurbished warehouse back in 2008. Being the first school to combine the International Primary Curriculum and Cambridge Primary, students were gaining their knowledge, skills, and understanding in a rigorous and fun way. Beacon Academy immediately stood out as an educational institution of choice for parents who wanted something creative and different for their learners.
Over five years, the Academy continued to invest in quality teachers and raised the ‘learning bar’. Students at the Academy are known in the community as being the most profound and knowledgeable, as learners are fully immersed in the connectedness of their learning with the world around them. Over the years, and with rising student numbers, there has been an increased focus on the use of technology, sports, and the arts with the new campus in Kelapa Gading designed to accommodate these priorities.
Joining the Academy is like joining like-minded families who understand that the world is no longer a place for traditional schooling. The Board of Management from the Ginza Group of Companies’ vision of the future is to ensure that the Academy is known for its pursuit of excellence. The new campus has been built with love and passion under the stewardship of Academy Director, Richard Sidharta, to provide learners with an avenue to imagine, create and innovate as they learn, so they stand out and make a mark for themselves in this dynamic and ever-changing world.
