Jakarta Montessori School has been educating children for more than 30 years, since its inception on 5^th October 1986.  We follow the best practices of an authentic Montessori school. The school clearly defines its institutional identity, Montessori principles, enduring values and beliefs, and educational outcomes. The School aims to give your child the best possible beginning to develop him/herself physically, mentally, socially and emotionally.

Jakarta Montessori School is recognized as the centre of excellence for Montessori schools.  Our school is a fully accredited Montessori School with the Montessori Evaluation and Accreditation Board, London, and received Accreditation for Toddlers through Lower Secondary from Badan Akreditasi Nasional Indonesia. We are affiliated to the International Montessori Council in the USA and work closely with The Montessori Foundation and their Lab School – NewGate Montessori IB School. All our lead teachers have International Montessori Diplomas.

The Montessori Programme is centred on the child and encourages building a foundation of interest in learning. By giving the opportunities in our school’s prepared environment and with guidance from our well-qualified teachers, your child will develop a love for learning and achieve independence, self-confidence and high self-esteem. They will be in a unique environment where children from many parts of the world come together and learn from each other through their daily interaction and appreciation of the different cultures. They will be encouraged to learn to work to the best of their ability, care for and respect others through a deeper understanding of the meaning of sharing, and expand a natural curiosity for the world around them. Our students develop their critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, fostering a lifelong love of learning.

JMS has Toddlers (18 months to 3 years), Early Childhood (3 to 6 years), Lower Primary (6 to 9 years), Upper Primary ( 9 to 12 years), Lower Secondary (12 to 14years) and Middle Secondary (14 to 16 years). We plan to open the Upper Secondary (16 to 18 years) in 2023. Each classroom contains a complete set of Montessori materials appropriate for the age group within that classroom. Every classroom also has access to an outside area where children are able to plant vegetables and flowers or to work outside in the clean and fresh air.

We do not discriminate between sex, colour or creed at Jakarta Montessori School. We’re proud of our beautiful and exceptional students and would like to invite you to visit our facility any time.
