History and status

Sekolah Dyatmika was founded in 1995 by a group of parents.[1]

It operates as a not-for-profit institution under the auspices of the Yayasan Dyatmika Sekar Bawana.[4]

Curriculum and accreditation

Dyatmika is accredited by Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) and serves as a Cambridge International School and Examination Centre.[5]

The school offers the Cambridge programme from Primary Prep up to Class 12.[6]

As an Indonesian school, Dyatmika also incorporates the mandatory elements of the Indonesian National Curriculum as required by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture.[2]

Indonesian (or dual-nationality) students sit the national examinations in the required years (Classes 5, 8, 11).[7]

From Class 9 onward, the school offers a “Double Award” option: students may graduate with both Indonesian national exam results and Cambridge qualifications (IGCSE / A-Level), giving them flexibility to pursue further education either in Indonesia or abroad.[7]

Language and educational approach

In Early Years and Primary levels, Dyatmika implements a dual-language programme: instruction is delivered in both Bahasa Indonesia and English.[8][9]

At the secondary level (SMP and SMA), most subject instruction is conducted in English while Bahasa Indonesia remains a required language subject.

The school emphasizes inquiry-based learning, critical thinking, creativity, and development of well-rounded individuals, combining academic rigor with arts, sports and a sense of community responsibility.[10][11]

Campus, facilities, and student body

Dyatmika is located in Kesiman–Kertalangu, Denpasar (near Sanur, Bali).

The campus overlooks rice fields and the Indian Ocean, and includes purpose-built facilities: science laboratories, computer rooms, art studios, music rooms, libraries, covered sports courts, playing fields, and more.[12]

Class sizes are reportedly limited (maximum 26 students),[6] supporting a community-oriented, small-group teaching environment.

As of the 2024–2025 school year, the school serves 775 students representing 44 nationalities. The largest national groups are Indonesian (~45%), British (~11%), Australian (~8%), American (~5%), Dutch (~5%), and Japanese (~4%).[12]

Notability and role

Dyatmika is one of the better-known international/spk schools in Bali and is often cited among private schools offering Cambridge curriculum on the island.[13][14][15][16]
