IB

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is a global leader in international education—developing inquiring, knowledgeable, confident, and caring young people (www.ibo.org).

This process is based on solid foundations:

  • › The IB mission: empower school-aged students to take ownership in their own learning and help them develop future-ready skills to make a difference and thrive in a world that changes fast.
  • Active learning, at the roots of the education, does place the students at the heart of the process, requiring a constant differentiation of the contents to the needs of each individual, while never enforcing any limits to their capabilities or desire to learn
  • › A common base of IB international standards to comply with, for all IB schools around the world
  • › The curriculum is singular from one school to the other, which makes it all the more significant and allows Gaa Koory International to offer an educational content which is:
    • ›› tailored to each and every one, taking into account our African realities together with a steady evolution within a broader multicultural environment
    • ›› unconventional and pioneering, alongside original topics proposed in line with our mission
    • ›› established upon a constant open-mindedness, operating weekly debates as early as Kindergarden level, in order to initiate our learners to express themselves using a well-constructed argumentation, defend their position, understand that of others, challenge their own thoughts, and expand their perception of life
  • › Each member of the IB community (learners, families, educational team) does share and represent the 10 qualities highlighted by the world IB schools
