Founded in 1956 in Bandung, the German School Jakarta began as a small German learning group. It was officially inaugurated on March 23, 1957, with support from the German government. In 1967 the school moved to Jakarta, occupying the former German embassy building in Menteng and became known as the German International School (Deutsche Internationale Schule Jakarta / DIS Jakarta). Land was acquired for BSD City in 1996; construction finished two years later and the BSD City campus opened, with Indonesian students admitted from 2001. The school earned the title of Excellent German School Abroad in 2008 and rebranded to Deutsche Schule Jakarta in 2017.
DSJ has an international community with students from over 20 nations. Multilingual education includes German, English, Indonesian, and French. Living Diversity celebrates cultural exchange through events and festivals such as Carnival, Chinese New Year, and Indonesia's Heroes' Day. Extracurricular activities include sports, music, arts, and clubs.
Our Parent Representation (EV) passionately supports the communication between school, parents, and students to help advancing overall school and community life.

Representatives Election: The Parent Representation (EV) gets elected once a year and comprises two class representatives from each class, which in turn elects the Board of Parent Representation (EVV). Role of Parent Representatives: They are catalysts for change and ambassadors of unity, organizing events and supporting projects.
