Dear Parents,

The New Zealand School Jakarta (NZSJ), formerly the New Zealand Independent School (NZIS), extends a warm welcome to you and your children. We offer education for Early Years (Pre-School, Kindergartens 1 and 2), Primary (Grades 1-6) and Secondary (Grades 7-12) School students. Our Early Years program begins at 12 months of age.

The School has a team of qualified and experienced expatriate and Indonesian teachers who look forward to meeting and challenging your child to be the best they can be. Our teaching is conducted in English, except for our language classes.

In the Early Years, we follow the Te Whāriki New Zealand Education Program, a child-initiated framework for learning and assessment. Our Primary School also follows the New Zealand Curriculum supplemented by other international frameworks. Our learning programs are child-centered with an emphasis on integration and cooperation. We will build on your child’s curiosity and foster a love of learning.

We will be pleased to answer any question or queries you may have and look forward to welcoming you into our beloved NZSJ community.

Tim Maitland
Head of School

NZSJ Enrolment Information

1. The NZSJ academic year begins in July and ends in June to align with the majority of our international student needs, as well as the Indonesian education system. Applications may be made all year round. Once we have received this Enrolment Form and supporting documents, we will be able to determine whether NZSJ will be a good match for your child/children. A student’s application will not be processed for admission until all supporting documents have been received.
2. All admission criteria must be met prior to entrance into the School. For a student to be eligible for entry, the School administration must agree that the student has a reasonable expectation of academic and personal success within the NZSJ program. Notwithstanding the above, the school reserves the right to refuse admission to any student at its sole discretion.
3. Application for admission must be accompanied by full citizenship and, for international students, residency documentation of the child and parent(s). For international students, this documentation must include a photocopy of a valid temporary Stay Permit (KITAS) for student and both parents or Dinas visa or Diplomatic visa for student and parents. The original documents must also later be presented and verified by the Admissions Office. No other visa status will be accepted. Students must reside with their parents or legal guardians.
4. If a KITAS is in process at the time of admission, a letter from the sponsoring company (employer) is required stating that an application for the KITAS has been lodged. This letter must be in the school’s files prior to the student’s entrance into the school. The original KITAS must be presented within 30 days after enrolment.
5. NZSJ believes that every child learns in his or her own way. Thus, learning programs must respond to individual needs. In this same vein, NZSJ believes in inclusive education and children with special education needs will be assessed to ensure that the School can support the child and provide a tailored learning plan as required. In the child’s best interests, if the School assesses that it may not have the professional and material resources to support the child adequately, the School may advise against enrolment or refuse admission.
6. In the case of financial delinquency (non-payment after 30 days), School policy prohibits class attendance and/or the release of grades, transcripts, or other records of attendance and performance.

I certify that all statement in this ENROLMENT FORM is complete and true.

I understand that any misinformation may result in denial of my application or dismissal from admission.

I will inform the school of any changes of these details.

IN CASE OF ACCIDENT OR EMERGENCY

1. In the event of any medical emergency, the School will attempt to contact the parents or guardians. If the School is unable to contact either of the above parents/guardians or if the accident is serious, the School is authorized to seek medical attention for the child from the nearest available qualified medical practitioner or hospital.
2. In the event of (1) above, I give permission for the School to make arrangements as are deemed necessary for the treatment of my child and the School and its staff shall not be held responsible for the results of medical treatment administered to the child and any expenses incurred shall be chargeable to the parent.
3. I give permission for my child to receive appropriate treatment when necessary, and for the School to administer non- prescription medicines, i.e. Paracetamol, throat lozenges, etc. on occasions deemed necessary, unless my child is allergic.
