| Teaching approach of the school |
From the inception of CBCS, the founders have endeavored to create a school that would truly be “a light to the nations” (Isaiah 49:6). Parents in the city of Bandung wanted to take seriously God’s commandment to “Raise your children in the training and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4) by providing an education presented from a Biblical worldview. |
