Academic Program Overview

IWAS offers a balanced, rigorous curriculum combining the International Baccalaureate (IB) framework with American and Global Standards, creating an environment where students are encouraged to explore, inquire, and grow intellectually.

Inspiring Excellence and Lifelong Learning

At IWAS, our academic program is designed to provide a well-rounded, inquiry-driven education that inspires curiosity, fosters critical thinking, and prepares students to thrive in a global society. As an IB Candidate School*, we are proud to integrate the Primary Years Programme (PYP) into our teaching, emphasizing holistic development, transdisciplinary learning, and real-world application.

Our Academic Approach

Inquiry-Based Learning

We encourage students to ask questions, explore ideas, and take ownership of their learning through an engaging and student-centered approach.

Multidisciplinary Curriculum

Subjects are interconnected through transdisciplinary themes, helping students see the relevance of their learning in everyday life.

Multilingual Education

While English is the primary language of instruction, we also offer Myanmar and Chinese language programs to nurture multilingualism and cultural appreciation.

Personalized Learning

At IWAS, we recognize the unique talents and learning styles of every student. Our small class sizes and dedicated educators ensure that every child receives individualized attention and tailored support to help them reach their fullest potential.

International-Mindedness

With a diverse faculty from Asia, North America, Europe, and Africa, and a curriculum that celebrates diversity, IWAS prepares students to think globally and act locally, embodying the traits of internationally minded learners.
