What is most important, however is how IB prepares our graduates for the challenges to come. Regardless of the focus that they choose to pursue, the rigor of IB and the depth of analysis and thought that it demands helps our students to develop and demonstrate the attitudes, skills and knowledge that will foster success for them in the years to come.
International Baccalaureate
Diploma Programme
ISK became an IB World School in April 2013, and all of our graduating classes have exemplified what we value in our students. As individuals (97% have been either full IB Diploma candidates or IB Course candidates), they rise to the challenge of this academically demanding program through a combination of courses (from the list below) that allow each student to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to make their mark as citizens of the world. With its holistic approach, CAS is designed to strengthen and extend the personal & interpersonal learning of students. CAS is a process of experiential learning where students learn by doing and reflecting upon what they have done. It is a journey of discovery that will enhance each student’s personal and interpersonal development. For many, CAS is profound and life-changing. CAS is individualized according to every person’s interests, skills and values and provides opportunities for self-determination, collaboration, accomplishment and enjoyment. The CAS programme formally begins at the start of the Diploma Programme and continues regularly, ideally on a weekly basis, for at least 18 months with a reasonable balance between creativity, activity, and service.
