The International Baccalaureate is an education framework that covers a more diverse and global education therefore helping students understand different languages and cultures. The framework is divided into four programmes: Primary Years Programme (3-12 years old), Middle Years Programme (11-16 years old), IB Diploma (16-19 years old) and Career related (16-19 years old). The IB framework is internationally transferable, meaning that the content taught is based on international knowledge and information, hence not country specific. How does this translate to the classroom? Each child will be given the opportunity to inquire, act and reflect around a topic of interest. This allows a student to obtain a mastery of skills in a specific subject matter. The IB Diploma Programme is research-based and develops disciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge. Its holistic approach means that students engage in thinking and discussion, alongside independent research and community service. As stated by the IB: “at the heart of all IB programmes is the IB learner profile. Each programme is designed to match the educational needs of students today and tomorrow, and to nurture the skills and attitudes they need to excel at their careers of choice and lead meaningful lives.”
