The International Baccalaureate (IB) • What is the IB?
• “The International Baccalaureate (IB) offers high quality programmes of international education to a worldwide community of schools. The IB is a nonprofit educational foundation, motivated by its mission, focused on the student. Our three programmes (Primary Years Programme – age 3-12, Middle Years Programme – age 11-16 and Diploma Programme – age 16-19) for students aged 3 to 19 help develop the intellectual, personal, emotional and social skills to live, learn and work in a rapidly globalizing world.Founded in 1968, we currently work with 2,261 schools in 126 countries to develop and offer three challenging programmes to over 602,000 students aged 3 to 19 years. The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum, primarily aimed at students aged 16 to 19. It leads to a qualification that is widely recognized by the world’s leading universities.Students learn more than a collection of facts.
