About this school
Permata Bangsa School – Global Education (PBS) is an English-medium K-12 school in Semarang, founded in 2000. Its campus sits on the hillside of Gombel Lama along the Gombel golf course road, and the school runs a junior golf programme with local and international golf partners.
PBS meets the Indonesian national curriculum (K-13) competencies alongside Cambridge learning objectives, delivered through the Cambridge Pathways framework from early years through primary, secondary and AS/A Level (Grades 11–12). It is an authorised Cambridge International examination centre (ID128), and students can graduate with both Indonesian and Cambridge qualifications. The school describes its own literacy-focused approach, in which every subject includes an academic-language element, using materials from Cambridge, Hodder and Oxford.
The programme aims at academic achievement, bilingualism and bi-literacy, and cultural pluralism, and teachers receive professional development in teaching multilingual classes. The school emphasises a close-knit community in which older and younger students mix, and graduates have continued to universities in Indonesia and abroad.
