Mission Statement
The International Baccalaureate develops 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.
