Our IB-Aligned Curriculum

IB Candidate School*

IWAS is proud be an international school offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and the Middle Years Programme (MYP). Our curriculum is designed to align with global educational benchmarks, ensuring that students can transition smoothly to other schools or graduate with the qualifications needed to gain admission to leading universities worldwide.

At IWAS, the curriculum is built on learning standards and conceptual understandings. These are thoughtfully designed to be developmentally appropriate, providing clear guidance on expectations at each grade level. This approach ensures a strong and seamless progression for students as they advance through their academic journey.

At IWAS, we ensure every student’s learning experience is meaningful and tailored to their unique backgrounds and learning styles. Our supportive environment fosters emotional intelligence, resilience, and a sense of community through mindfulness initiatives and peer mentoring.

At IWAS, the PYP curriculum develops the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and culturally—through inquiry-based learning and global concepts. While aligning with American standards, we emphasize a global perspective, preparing students for smooth international transitions. Bilingual learning further enhances students’ cultural awareness and communication skills in diverse settings.
