Academic Programs


As an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, we offer the Diploma Programme (DP) and a middle school curriculum based on the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) framework, providing a continuum of high-quality international education for students in grades 8 to 12.

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is one of the most respected and widely adopted academic programs in international schools and is increasingly integrated into national education systems worldwide. With more than 4,000 schools offering IB programs, it is well suited to meet the needs of our internationally minded and globally engaged community.

The IB stands apart from other curricula because it:

  • Encourages students to think critically and ask questions.
  • Operates independently of governments and national systems, allowing it to incorporate best practices from a range of international frameworks.
  • Promotes local, national, and global perspectives, fostering intercultural understanding.

Research shows that IB students perform well on international academic assessments and often outperform students in other programs. IB Diploma Programme graduates report feeling better prepared for university-level coursework, particularly in research skills, time management, and handling rigorous academic challenges.
