IGCSE
SES is proud to offer the full Cambridge Pathway for learners from 5 to 19 year of age
SES is fully accredited by Badan Akerditasi Nasional with 'A' grades for Montessori, Primary, Lower Secondary and Upper Secondary
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 caring 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.
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.
SES celebrates the sporting, cultural, social and charitable activities of our school community. Providing our students with opportunities for fitness, sport, artistic expression as well as a supportive social environment is a very important part of their holistic development. We appreciate the extensive efforts of our teachers and parents in providing a well-rounded experience. Check out our Instagram feed…

Our Science lessons this week have focused on the intricate connections within ecosystems, moving from theoretical analysis to active simulation.
📝 Students began by interpreting complex food webs, mapping out how energy flows from producers to consumers on their whiteboards. They identified specific food chains—like the Kingfisher’s path shown in the photos—and discussed crucial concepts such as bioaccumulation (how toxins travel through these networks).
🏃To solidify their understanding, the class headed outside for an energetic food chain game. By physically acting out the roles of different organisms, they gained a tangible understanding of the delicate balance of nature.
A fantastic blend of analytical thinking and active learning!

Our Year 6 students have officially launched their new IPC unit, “Here and Now, There and Then”.
The ‘Entry Point’ is always an exciting time in the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), designed to hook students’ interest and spark curiosity before deep learning begins. To kick off this topic, students immersed themselves in the geography and culture of their immediate surroundings—Indonesia.
From sketching detailed maps of the archipelago to creating patriotic artwork, they are beginning to understand how the ‘Here and Now’ is shaped by the history of ‘There and Then’.
It is the start of a fascinating journey into how time and place influence who we are today.

Cubes, Syllables, and Life Cycles: A Busy Week in Year 2! 🔢🌱
It has been another dynamic week of learning for our Year 2 students, moving seamlessly between hands-on problem solving and digital research.
Here is a snapshot of their progress:
➗ Maths: We continued our exploration of ‘groups of’ (an essential foundation for multiplication). Moving from concrete manipulatives to the abstract, students are learning to draw groups and use ‘Thinking Blocks’ to visualise and solve questions effectively.
📝 English: The focus this week was on the rhythm of language. Students have been investigating multisyllabic words, identifying where the breaks occur to improve both their reading and spelling accuracy.
🐸 Science: In our unit ‘Humans and Animals Grow’, we looked back and looked forward. Students discussed how they have changed since they were babies and imagined their future selves in 20 years. They also combined traditional learning with technology, using iPads to research the specific names of baby animals.
