IB Career-related
Programme
Combining academic rigour with real-world, career-focused learning — for Grades 11 and 12 at Aspee Nutan Academy.
History of the International Baccalaureate
In 1962 the International Schools Association (ISA), teachers of social studies in international schools, convened in Geneva for a conference. These educators advocated for a globally-minded education, based on student-centred learning and interactive classrooms, influenced by progressive educators including John Dewey, A.S. Neill, Jean Piaget, and Jerome Bruner. During the conference, the ISA adopted the term International Baccalaureate.
In the years leading up to the IB's official registration in 1968, educators including Alex Peterson, Robert Leach, John Goormaghtigh, and Kurt Hahn developed the philosophy, structure, and content of the IB Diploma Programme. The IB was introduced the same year as a pilot programme by 12 schools in 12 different countries.
