What is an IB Education?
IB programmes encourage both personal development and academic achievement, challenging students to think critically, to ask the right questions and think across disciplines. An IB education also fosters diversity, curiosity and a healthy appetite for learning. An IB education crosses disciplinary, cultural, national and geographical boundaries and champions critical engagement, stimulating ideas and meaningful relationships.
