The 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 IB's educational framework prioritizes the development of learners, fostering healthy relationships, ethical responsibility, and personal challenges.
IB programmes are designed to cultivate effective approaches to teaching and learning, equipping students with the attitudes and skills essential for both academic and personal accomplishment.
Emphasis is placed on operating within global contexts, enhancing students' comprehension of languages and cultures, while also delving into globally significant ideas and issues.
IB programmes provide a curriculum that is broad, balanced, conceptual, and interconnected, ensuring exposure to significant content.
IB learners aspire to embody qualities such as inquiry, knowledge, critical thinking, effective communication, ethical principles, open-mindedness, empathy, willingness to take risks, balance, and reflection. These attributes encapsulate a wide spectrum of human capacities and responsibilities extending beyond intellectual growth and academic achievement.
The PYP, tailored for young learners aged 3-12, is a curriculum framework crafted by the International Baccalaureate (IB). It is grounded in a philosophy that acknowledges children's innate curiosity, creativity, and capacity for reflection.
Founded on the belief in a child's natural inclinations, the PYP creates a dynamic and challenging learning environment aimed at nurturing these inherent qualities, cultivating a lifelong passion for learning in each child.
Similar to all IB programmes, the PYP adopts a transdisciplinary approach, wherein students explore overarching concepts spanning multiple subject areas, fostering holistic learning experiences.
The PYP attends to students' academic, social, and emotional well-being, fostering independence and nurturing a sense of responsibility for their own learning journey.
It facilitates students' endeavours to comprehend the world around them and to navigate it adeptly, while also assisting them in forming personal values that serve as the bedrock for the cultivation and flourishing of international-mindedness.
At AIVB, the PYP Programme prioritizes the learner, granting them autonomy, choice, and agency in their educational journey.
The PYP employs Approaches to Learning (ATL) to facilitate inquiry within the six subject areas, fostering a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.
The curriculum articulates a Programme of Inquiry delineating how the six transdisciplinary themes will be explored across various age groups, ensuring a cohesive and well-rounded educational experience.
Aiming for coherence and balance, the programme offers students in their early and primary years a coherent and balanced curriculum that spans various subjects and themes.
Central to the PYP programme's goals is the cultivation of international-mindedness, fostering the development of global citizens.
The learning environment at AIVB includes exposure to diverse languages such as Kannada, Hindi, French, and Spanish, enriching students' linguistic and cultural experiences.
