Founded in 1979, IPEKA Christian School originated from Rev. DR.William Hodaviah Hosana's profound concern regarding the difficulties Christian families encountered in locating a high-quality Christian school for their children. On July 16th, 1979, IPEKA Christian Kindergarten began its first academic year.
Under the auspices of the IPEKA Foundation, IPEKA Christian School received full support from the Synod of Gereja Kristus Yesus (GKY)' in Jakarta. While our school community warmly embraces students and parents from diverse faiths and cultural backgrounds, our core ethos, values, and principles are deeply rooted in the Christian faith and tradition.
Today, we proudly celebrate a vibrant community comprising over 11,500 students and 1,300 teachers across 16 campuses spanning Jakarta, Tangerang, Bekasi, Palembang, Balikpapan, and Makassar.
PHILOSOPHY OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."
(Proverbs 1:7)
We believe in a God-centered education that emanates from the self-revelation of God given to humankind in the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God, the Bible.
We believe that God wants to enter into personal relationship with human beings. He has made himself known in the Bible and in His Son, Jesus Christ, God incarnate.
He has also revealed Himself through created order (Romans 1), human conscience (Romans 2), and through the unfolding of events in history.
As God’s image bearers we have the capacity to perceive and comprehend God’s self-revelation. Yet, due to sin and willful disobedience humans may suppress and reject this self-revelation (Romans 1:18).
We desire that all students understand the fear of the Lord and enjoy a personal relationship through faith in Jesus Christ. In addition, teachers want students to bring the mind of Christ to all subjects and
to know God through all the subjects.
