Online learning might not be a preferred option at the school level, but schools are left with no choices in this pandemic. Regardless of their skepticism, they have turned towards this undervalued learning method. It’s not what educational institutions conceive of online learning, but it’s about how effectively they can integrate the use of technology to make learning better.
At Jakarta Academics, we have been delivering online learning for years. As homeschool, some of our students come from different regions and to ensure they can have an equal opportunity to a quality education we have developed our distance learning program. Our experience has enabled us to understand the essential aspects of online learning.
Here are some key advantages your child can have by joining us:
SMALL NUMBER OF STUDENTS – our maximum capacity for each class is 6 students at a time. The usual numbers are 3-4 students.
DURATION OF LEARNING – our live sessions are for 2 hours per subject which gives a good amount of time to the teachers and learners.
STUDENT LEARNING PORTAL – students receive their own dashboard to access study notes, assignments, quizzes, etc. A student portal showing subjects and do list.
GROUP DISCUSSION – students can create a discussion forum to discuss with the subject teacher and peers. Discussion for students & teacher
At the end of the day, what matters most is the quality of learning. Whether it’s in the classroom or online, we have been always looking for the best possible ways.
From Jakarta to Paris: The Journey of a Jakarta Academics Alumna Now Studying at Université Paris-Saclay
Every student’s journey looks different. For some, having the flexibility to learn in a way that suits them best can open doors to opportunities around the world.
At Jakarta Academics, education is designed with that flexibility in mind. As an international homeschooling hybrid school using the Pearson Edexcel curriculum, Jakarta Academics allows students to choose whether they want to attend classes onsite or online, while still following internationally recognised academic standards
For Cherienoel Yazzana Pada, this flexible learning environment became an important part of her academic journey. Today, she is continuing her studies in Economics at Paris-Saclay University, one of Europe’s leading universities.
At Jakarta Academics, students are not limited to one way of learning. Some prefer attending classes onsite, while others join online. This flexibility allows students to choose the learning environment where they feel most comfortable and productive.
We welcome students from Grade 1 to Grade 12, offering globally recognised qualifications such as IGCSE and A-Level. These programs are widely accepted by universities around the world and help students build a strong academic foundation for their future studies.
Another key difference is the approach to time. Instead of following a rigid schedule, students are given more flexibility in how they manage their learning. This encourages them to develop independence, discipline and responsibility. These are skills that are especially valuable when preparing for university life.
Taking the Next Step Abroad
After completing her A-Level studies at Jakarta Academics, Cherienoel decided to continue her academic journey overseas. With the strong foundation she had built during her studies, she successfully gained admission to Paris-Saclay University, where she is now pursuing a degree in Economics.
Located just outside Paris, France, Paris-Saclay is widely recognised as one of the world’s leading research universities. In the Academic Ranking of World Universities (Shanghai Ranking), the university has been ranked 13th in the world, making it the highest-ranked university in France and continental Europe.
The university is known for bringing together several prestigious institutions and research centres, which create a dynamic academic environment that attracts students and researchers from across the globe. For students interested in fields such as economics, mathematics, and science, Paris-Saclay offers an intellectually stimulating environment where innovation and collaboration and collaboration thrive.
For Cherienoel, continuing her studies there marks an exciting new chapter, one that began with the academic preparation and flexibility she experienced during her time at Jakarta Academics.

Homeschooling in Jakarta: How Students Stay Social, Active, and Connected
When parents begin exploring homeschooling in Jakarta, one question often comes to mind:
“Will my child still have opportunities to socialise?”
It’s a completely understandable concern. School is not just where children study – it’s also a place where children build friendships, learn to collaborate with others, and develop confidence through everyday interactions.
At Jakarta Academics, we believe homeschooling should never feel isolating. That’s why our program combines flexible academic learning with regular enrichment activities, allowing students to stay socially connected while benefiting from a personalised education.
In other words, students enjoy the flexibility of homeschooling without missing out on the social side of learning.
A Space for Students to Connect
A common misconception about homeschooling is that students spend most of their time learning alone. In reality, when designed well, homeschooling can offer many opportunities for social interaction.
At Jakarta Academics, our enrichment program allows students to meet regularly, spend time together, and build friendships outside their academic sessions.
These activities create a relaxed and welcoming environment where students can:
interact with peers
develop teamwork and communication skills
form friendships beyond the classroom
For many students, these moments become some of the most enjoyable parts of their learning journey.
Physical activities are an important part of both social development and overall wellbeing. Through our enrichment program, students regularly participate in sports together, including:
Tennis
Futsal
Basketball
Badminton
Sports naturally encourage teamwork, communication, and confidence. Whether students are playing competitively or simply enjoying the game together, these activities provide a space where friendships will grow naturally.
Sometimes, the best connections happen off the screen and on the court.
Learning Practical Life Skills: Financial Literacy
Education should also prepare students for life beyond school. That’s why our enrichment program includes sessions on financial literacy.
Students are introduced to essential concepts such as:
understanding money and spending habits ● basic saving and budgeting principles
developing responsible financial behaviour
These lessons help students begin building the awareness and independence they will need as they move toward university and adulthood.
A Balanced Homeschooling Experience
At Jakarta Academics, homeschooling is designed to support both academic success and personal development.
Students benefit from flexible learning while still having opportunities to:
socialise with peers
stay physically active
develop real-world skills
This balanced approach ensures students are not only prepared for university, but also growing into confident, well-rounded individuals.
For parents exploring homeschooling options in Jakarta, this means knowing that their child is part of a learning environment where they can study, connect, and grow together.

Anak Kurang Mendapat Perhatian di Kelas Besar? Microschool Kini Hadir di Bali
Pernah merasa anak kita sebenarnya pintar, tapi seperti tenggelam di kelas yang terlalu ramai? Guru baik, fasilitas oke, tapi karena muridnya banyak, perhatian jadi terbagi. Akhirnya anak yang butuh support lebih malah jadi kurang terpantau.
Kalau ini yang sedang Anda rasakan, mungkin sudah waktunya kenal lebih dekat dengan konsep microschool dan kabar baiknya, sekarang sudah hadir di Bali.
Di sekolah konvensional, satu kelas bisa diisi 25–35 siswa. Artinya, waktu guru untuk setiap anak sangat terbatas.
Beberapa hal yang sering terjadi:
Anak yang pemalu jadi makin diam
Anak yang cepat belajar jadi kurang tertantang
Anak yang butuh waktu lebih jadi tertinggal
Guru fokus ke kurikulum, bukan kebutuhan personal
Bukan berarti sistem lama salah. Tapi faktanya, setiap anak itu beda. Gaya belajar beda. Kecepatan paham beda. Minatnya pun beda.
Microschool: Sistem Belajar dengan Perhatian Lebih Personal
Microschool hadir dengan konsep kelas kecil (small group), biasanya hanya beberapa siswa dalam satu kelas. Dengan jumlah murid yang lebih sedikit, guru bisa benar-benar mengenal setiap anak.
Di JA School Bali, pendekatan ini dibuat supaya:
Anak lebih percaya diri untuk bertanya
Guru bisa menyesuaikan cara mengajar sesuai karakter siswa
Pembelajaran lebih interaktif, bukan hanya duduk dan mendengar
Fokus bukan cuma nilai, tapi juga perkembangan karakter dan skill
Jadi bukan sekadar sekolah kecil, tapi sistem belajar yang lebih dekat dan lebih peduli.
Cocok untuk Anak Seperti Apa?
Microschool biasanya sangat cocok untuk:
Anak yang butuh perhatian lebih
Anak yang cepat bosan di kelas besar
Anak yang punya minat khusus dan ingin dikembangkan
Orang tua yang ingin lebih terlibat dalam perkembangan anak
Karena suasananya lebih nyaman dan tidak terlalu formal, anak biasanya lebih enjoy. Belajar jadi terasa seperti eksplorasi, bukan tekanan.
Kenapa Microschool Jadi Tren di Bali?
Bali punya komunitas yang unik banyak keluarga lokal maupun internasional yang mencari sistem pendidikan fleksibel, global, dan tetap personal.
Orang tua sekarang tidak hanya bertanya: “Nilainya berapa?”
Tapi juga: “Anak saya berkembang tidak? Dia percaya diri tidak? Dia siap menghadapi masa depan tidak?”
Microschool menjawab pertanyaan itu dengan pendekatan yang lebih relevan dengan kebutuhan zaman sekarang.
Belajar Lebih Dekat, Berkembang Lebih Cepat
Bayangkan anak Anda berada di lingkungan belajar yang:
Gurunya benar-benar mengenal karakternya
Punya ruang untuk bertanya dan berekspresi
Tidak merasa tertinggal atau terlalu tertahan
Didorong untuk berpikir kritis dan mandiri
Itulah tujuan microschool hadir di Bali.
Karena pada akhirnya, pendidikan bukan soal siapa yang paling cepat selesai materi. Tapi siapa yang paling siap menghadapi masa depan.
Kalau Anda ingin tahu apakah sistem microschool cocok untuk anak Anda, mungkin sekarang waktu yang tepat untuk cari tahu lebih jauh.
Karena setiap anak berhak mendapatkan perhatian yang cukup — bukan hanya tempat duduk di kelas.
