Character Refinement

Character is an integral aspect of an individual. Empowering the students with desirable behavior that will lead them to having a decent life is the shared mission of parents and educators since it encompasses the character values that are imparted first at home and reinforced in school.
Through this partnership, the clear vision of moulding individuals with excellent character will be attained. Furthermore, leading a lifestyle that reflects positive behavior is the most important contribution of our students to the community.
Our Character Education program includes the following pillars:
Responsibility Obedience Benevolence Politeness Teamwork

from The Heart of
Surabaya Cambridge School
The world is changing very fast; technological development is unstoppable and whether we like it or not, our children take part in this development. Our task as an institution is to prepare them holistically not just to survive this fast changing world but to prepare them to become successful individuals. If they get a good foundation in high school they will get admitted in Universities that will train them to become fruitful or useful members of the society; responsible for their own actions and the community where they belong.
SCS is devoted to raise a God-fearing generation because the fear of God is the beginning of all science and wisdom. As SCS is committed to form a generation of individuals with excellent character and high quality of living, we work hand in hand with the parents who have the same commitment and concern.

My son is a G8 student at SCS. As a parent, I am quite satisfied with the curriculum as well as the facilities. The curriculum accommodates the students not only to grasp the theories, but also to implement them through group projects. I am especially happy with the idea of group projects since it allows the students to experience working with different characters of friends. It also lets them learn how to build teamwork in order to complete a good project. Several quizzes helps the students to better understand in smaller parts of a chapter.
So it creates a pattern for the students to always review what they learn everyday. Furthermore, starting this academic year, SCS offers a new subject called Global Perspective which trains the students to think critically about global issues. It broadens their knowledge by looking at global issues from different points of views. These activities require practices which means start early is better. Expectantly, by the time the students engage in workforce they have mastered such skills. As a student, my son has been very happy because he has experienced different learning methods. He enjoys working with his friends. Even though sometimes he had some arguments but he could handle it by himself. Same as I am, my son is also very pleased to have Global Perspective. He is eager to share his ideas, being open minded, and learn to understand others” points of views.

Students’ Testimonials

Denise Ratu Diandra
(taking B.S. Biochemistry at University of Leeds, United Kingdom)
Learning in SCS is very much comparable as to being in a roller coaster. In other words, there will certainly be ups and downs, which create a sense of joy and fear. However, like the end of a roller coaster ride, once you have completed the journey, you will never regret the experience. Furthermore, as a registered Cambridge International School, SCS has given us the opportunity to participate in IGCSE, AS and A level examination which allow us to constantly challenge our understanding and have an upper edge in the competitive world of education.

SCS has contributed so much to my academic life. It prepared me from a very young age; refined my character and supported my dreams to pursue the next chapter that life has prepared for me. Taking A Levels was not an easy path to take, yet I am so grateful that I took them as it opened up doors to much more opportunities. It definitely paved the path to a new chapter in my academic life.
