International Baccalaureate or IB is an international educational board founded at Geneva, Switzerland, in 1967. Today, IB education is recognised globally for its holistic approach to education. This board presents students with an opportunity to learn through experience in a standardised global education format. Choosing IB as your child’s educational board ensures they develop cognitive skills, research, communication, self-management, and social skills. The significant difference between IB learning and other boards is that IB supports concept-based learning over textbook study. Furthermore, the IB board aims to create intercultural understanding and respect through curious, knowledgeable, and caring individuals.
The IB board at Kanakia International School offers four challenging and top-notch educational programmes to accommodate the board’s worldwide community of schools. These four programmes include the primary year programme, middle year programme, diploma programme, and career-related programme.
