The freedom to make important decisions and the knowledge to make them intelligibly. We believe that knowledge and wisdom gained through self-inquiry leaves a stronger imprint in one’s mind. Therefore, more than learning itself, we believe in the “spirit of learning”, sparked by curiosity and inquisitiveness is instrumental in becoming an engaged citizen of the world.
IB addresses the need for a holistic approach to education with a pedagogy that focuses on shaping internationally-minded individuals who are committed towards creating a peaceful world through inquiry, understanding and respect.
The IB programmes are tailored to bring out the best in every child and take into account the characteristics and preferences that are unique to the individual, while creating a learning environment that promotes collaboration and empathy. They cater to all age groups with programmes for the primary, middle and diploma years.
IB's Primary Year Programme (PYP) focuses on discovering the spark in budding minds during their formative years. It identifies their distinct facets and pivots the learning process around it to ensure that knowledge is assimilated in a manner they’re most comfortable with. PYP recognizes the brilliance of a mathematical theorem with the same fervor as it does the beauty of a sonnet or the passion of a football game. So, rest assured, not one child will feel the need to conform to a norm or bend to peer-pressure.
