Hello

I plan to move back to Surabaya with my daughter and wife.
Im just want to ask if anyone have any experience with International schools in Surabaya?
Prices, and what schools are the "best"?
We what her to qualify to a swedish university later on... anyone know about that to?
I mean they have to have that kind of standard I guess, so Sweden later accept her...
I really don't know how it works... at all...

Hello,

There is 3 international schools.
Almost all the expat have their kids in the first 2 :

SIS (surabaya intercultural school). It is an american school with american standard. Most of the teachers are from Usa europe or australia.

SES ( surabaya europeen school)
Not sure if they also do High school. Really good school also. most of my friends have their kids here. ( you need to enroll early, A lot of demand for this school !)

Ciputra sekola
English school more local but some expat kids also. Very good level of teaching. it is the only school to propose the IB ( international baccalaureat).
It is the cheapest of these 3 schools.

I hope it helps !!

No I am not a teacher but I lived in this area during 3 years. I moved 3 weeks ago.
All the school are in the same area.
And most of the expat lives there. We are a small community :-)

good luck !
