The International Baccalaureate® (IB) fully
realized its concept of an educational continuum, and of a coherent,
broad-based international curriculum, with the introduction of the Primary
Years Programme (PYP) in 1997.
The IB is now able to offer three programmes of
international education and a career-related certificate, with them, the
prospect of a continuous international educational experience from early
childhood to pre-university age. While the IB now offers a sequence of three
programmes—the PYP, the Middle Years Programme (MYP, introduced in 1994) and
the Diploma Programme (DP, introduced in 1969)—each programme must continue to
be self-contained, since the IB has no requirement for schools to offer more
than one programme. However, they must also form an articulated sequence for
those schools that teach all three programmes or any sequence of two.
With the development of a continuum of
international education, it is intended that teachers, students and parents will
be able to draw confidently on a recognizable common educational framework, a
consistent structure of aims and values and an overarching concept of how to
develop international-mindedness.
With the addition of the IB Career-related
Certificate (IBCC) in 2010, the IB is expanding the number of ways that
students can benefit from an IB education. This is a career-related
qualification that is specifically designed to provide a flexible learning
framework tailored by the school to meet the needs of students and the local
community as well as the world beyond.
The IB learner profile will be at the heart of this
common framework, as a clear and concise statement of the aims and values of
the IB, and an embodiment of what the IB means by "international-mindedness".
