Student Counselling

High School

Sekolah Ciputra High School has two full-time counselors. Their aim is to support students to be proud of their national identity and culture, to be internationally minded, to live harmoniously with others, and to participate effectively in a global society. To that end, the counselors focus on three important areas of the students lives:  academic, personal/social and future careers.

The programs offered by counseling include:

Student Monitoring Program

The Student Monitoring Program is designed for students who have difficulties in learning. Counselors identify which students are experiencing academic problems by assessing their report marks and collecting information about their classroom behaviour. Students are monitored for one term, after which the counselors report directly to parents on academic progress so they can motivate their child further at home.

Private Counseling Programme

The Private Counseling Programme is sometimes the best approach for students in order to discuss issues about peers, teachers, parents or academic problems. Students are given guidance to solve their problems independently. The counselors are available every day at first and second break or after school.

Group Gounseling Programme

Currently, group counseling is only used for new students, but it is also an option for other students if they have something to discuss. Group counseling sessions cover topics such as adapting to a new environment, making friends, and dealing with new teachers and systems.

Careers Day

Counselors offer a career guidance programme specifically designed for year 10 students. On Careers Day, parents of students who are successful in their chosen field come and share experiences and tips for success, which later can be used by students to plan their own careers. As well, representatives from Universities both in Indonesia and abroad are available to present useful information and guidance to students.

Work Experience Week

Sekolah Ciputra has partnerships with several companies in Surabaya to provide Year 10 students with work experience in their chosen area. Work Experience week usually occurs in Term 3 of the achool year. Students can experience what it is like to be in a work environment. At the end, students debrief on what they learnt and the impact that will have on their career decisions.
