๐ Transportation and Residence Tips
Jakarta's traffic congestion is truly famous. That's why it's important to live in a location that is convenient for your child's commute. Many international schools operate school buses, but it is better to choose an apartment or residence close to the school if possible. This will reduce commuting time and allow your child to manage their studies and leisure activities more efficiently.
โ
Choosing an international school in Jakarta is a big decision, so please choose a school that suits your child's learning style and your family's needs.
I hope this helps you prepare for life in Jakarta!
