Why choose KIS and the International Baccalaureate?

KIS is committed to providing a quality educational experience for all of its community. We do this through the Primary Years Programme, the Middle Years Programme and in collaboration with the local High School, the Diploma Programme, of the International Baccalaureate Organization.  All three programmes:

  • Have a strong international dimension
  • Draw on content from the educational cultures of the world
  • Require study across a broad range of subjects
  • Include both individual subjects and transdisciplinary areas
  • Give special emphasis to learning languages
  • Focus on developing the skills of learning
  • Provide opportunities for individual and collaborative planning and research
  • Encourages students to become responsible members of their community
Alongside this, all three programmes aim to develop a set of values throughout the IB community called the Learner Profile.

‘The aim of all IB programmes is to develop internationally minded people who, recognizing their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better, more peaceful world’
