Through comprehensive and balanced curricula coupled with
challenging assessments, the International Baccalaureate
Organization aims to assist schools in their endeavors to
develop the individual talents of young people and teach them
to relate the experience of the classroom to the realities
of the world outside. Beyond intellectual rigor and
high academic standards, strong emphasis is placed on the
ideals of international understanding and responsible
citizenship, to the end that International Baccalaureate
students may become critical and compassionate thinkers,
lifelong learners, and informed participants in local and
world affairs, conscious of the shared humanity that binds
all people together while respecting the variety of cultures
and attitudes that makes for the richness of life.

The International Baccalaureate Organization aims to develop
inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to
create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural
understanding and respect.
To this end the IBO works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programs of international education and rigorous assessment. These programs encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right. |
