International Baccalaureate

Isaac Rabin School became part of the IB International Community in 2009 when we were authorized to teach the Primary Years Program (PYP) for children from 3 to 12 years old. Later, in 2013, we received authorization to deliver the Middle Years Program (MYP), intended for students between 11 and 16.

The IB's continuum of education programs is unique in its academic and personal rigor, encouraging students to excel in their studies and personal growth. The IB's goal is to inspire a lifelong pursuit of learning, marked by enthusiasm and empathy.

The IB offers quality international education programs that share a powerful vision. IB education:

Is learner-centered: learner-centered IB programs promote healthy relationships, ethical responsibility, and self-improvement.
Develops effective teaching and learning approaches: IB programs help students develop the attitudes and skills necessary for academic and personal success.
It takes place within global contexts: IB programs deepen understanding of languages and cultures and explore ideas and issues that are relevant globally.
Explores meaningful content: IB programs offer a broad, balanced, conceptual, and cohesive curriculum.

WHAT IS IB EDUCATION?

The IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), intended for children ages 3 to 12, focuses on the development of the whole child and their capacity for inquiry and discovery, both in the classroom and the world around the student. It consists of a curriculum framework defined by six transdisciplinary themes of global importance, explored with knowledge and skills derived from six disciplinary areas and transdisciplinary skills, with a strong emphasis on learning through inquiry.

The PYP is flexible enough to accommodate the requirements of most national or local curricula and offers students the best preparation for further study in the IB Middle Years Program (MYP).
