The International Baccalaureate® (IB) to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. The IB offers challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment which encourages students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
Continuum
The IB offers a continuum of international education for students from 4-18. The programmes encourage both personal and academic achievement, challenging students to excel in their studies and in their personal development.
Quality practice
IB programmes incorporate quality practice from national and international research and the IB global community. They encourage students to be internationally-minded, within a complex and hyper-connected world.
The IB's programmes are different from other curricula because they:
- encourage students of all ages to think critically and challenge assumptions;
- develop independently of government and national systems, incorporating quality practice from research and our global community of schools;
- encourage students of all ages to consider both local and global contexts;
- develop multilingual students.
Students learn how to learn
Throughout all IB programmes, students develop approaches to learning skills and the attributes of the IB learner profile.
Students are able to take responsibility for their own learning and understand how knowledge itself is constructed. They are encouraged to try different approaches to learning and to take responsibility for their own educational progress.
Our programmes help students:
- ask challenging questions;
- think critically;
- develop research skills proven to help them in higher education.
IB programmes also encourage students to be active in their communities and to take their learning beyond academic study.
