MissionThe International Baccalaureate 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 organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment.
These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.

The Written curriculum
Divided into six transdisciplinary themes across the year.
• Where we are in place and time• Who we are• How we express ourselves• How the world works• How we organize ourselves• Sharing the planet
The programme offers a balance between learning about or through the subject areas, and learning beyond them.

The Written curriculum
Each of the six transdisciplinary themes is presented as a unit of inquiry.
Every unit of inquiry requires all students to come to an understanding of a central idea. Example:
Where we are in place and time
Human migration is a response to challenge and opportunity
