- The first Montessori school established in Jakarta began in 1981 as a playgroup under the name of Srikandi Montessori School and was formed under the guidance of Gloria Kalff. Due to the ever-increasing appeal for Montessori education, the school evolved into a complete primary program, providing education for children from 2 years old through elementary Grade 6. The school changed its name to Jayakarta Montessori School in 1995. The buildings are architecturally designed and equipped with facilities to meet the Montessori philosophy. The specially prescribed Montessori equipment is imported exclusively from the official worldwide manufacturer, Neinhuis Montessori, Holland. A Montessori teacher and a classroom assistant staff each classroom. The teachers receive training from an approved Montessori training center. Classroom assistants are selected based on their understanding of the principles of child development and their ability to observe the child. The remainder of the staff includes part-time specialist instructors, assistants, and administrative staff. Jayakarta Montessori School is a preschool and elementary school located in Kemang, South Jakarta, offering programs for children from 18 months to 11 years of age. Through the Montessori approach, students are motivated to learn naturally by providing a prepared environment and materials which the children can use at their own pace. This approach focuses on building intrinsic motivation, independence, self-discipline, and a positive self-image. Each child is taught the necessary skills to prepare them for the next phase, be it in a larger school, in another international school, or back home overseas. Montessori children are adaptable. Since they have been encouraged to make decisions from an early age, these children are problem-solvers who can make choices and manage their time well. They have also been encouraged to exchange ideas and to discuss their work freely with others. Good communication skills ease the way in new settings. Montessori programs, based on self-directed, non-competitive activities, help children develop good self-images and the confidence to face challenges and change. Jayakarta Montessori School is a corresponding member of the American Montessori Society, NYC, New York. View full school
