Our Educators

Alongside their qualifications and experiences, Surabaya European School’s teachers have the qualities needed to support and inspire students in a high performing international school. These include enthusiasm, independence, resilience, adaptability and a sense of humour. From Montessori school, Primary School and Secondary school these characteristics all contribute to the caring, supportive environment and community that encourages each students to explore and develop their potential in their own way.

Educating Global Citizens

Our consistent focus for students is on high academic standards, essential life skills and a sense of responsibility to the community all within the framework of a ‘family like’ atmosphere. We also ensure that each student receives the educational support they need while being challenged to extend themselves according to their individual potential.

News and Events

As an international school we pride ourselves on the family atmosphere and culturally diverse community we have created here in Surabaya. We make a conscious effort to hold events that offer our community the opportunity to come together in wide range of sporting, artistic, intellectual and cultural activities. In addition to cultivating a sense of belonging, this allows our students to explore their creativity and imagination and gain confidence in expressing themselves.

Setting sail with creativity and ingenuity! As part of our IPC (International Primary Curriculum) journey, we designed and constructed boats using recyclable materials, then put them to the test! ⚓️💡 This hands-on activity encourages our young explorers to dive deep into the subject, hone their critical thinking skills, as well as learned about parts of boat in a fun way. Let's go with the flow! 🌊♻️ #IPC #CreativeSailing #FutureInnovators #sesprimary

There’s so much to discover about how our bodies work! First we brainstormed what we knew about the human body and then shared what we wanted to find out. 
Our first investigation was about how the eyes work. We made eye charts that had secret messages on them. Can you work out what they say?
