Why students with IB Diploma Programme gain an edge over their counterparts

Posted by george on June 12th, 2021

The IB Diploma and the International Baccalaureate is a bespoke, balanced as well as challenging academic programme that has been designed keeping in mind the demanding and intense requirements of today’s university and employment needs.

It has been planned in such a way that it nurtures the overall personality of a students with every aspect - such as the intellectual, social, physical and emotional - taken into consideration.

Let’s get into more details as to why the IB board is important for current educational scenario and why it’s being implemented in some of the best schools in Gurgaon, Delhi and NCR.

IB learners are culturally aware and better prepared for global presence

Since the IB board is an international board, it is always working in tandem with international universities. The IB and Cambridge schools in Delhi, NCR are constantly uplifting their standard of education by keeping the curriculum in sync with the needs of students who aspire to complete their education abroad. Their course makes them familiar with what global universities normally look for in students.

The students from the IB board find it much easier to navigate through universities in the USA, UK, Germany and many other popular international academic destinations because they’ve had that kind of training for years at their home ground. Students from these schools also find it rather easy to adapt and mould themselves quickly to the cultural needs of foreign universities. It makes their transition to college life easy and helps them develop sustaining relationships with peers as well as teachers.

IB learners are encouraged to think critically

The best Cambridge schools in Delhi, NCR typically adopt the IB programmes for students in primary classes as also for the senior students of Classes 11th and 12th. The IB courses lay emphasis on problem solving and practical life skills - traits that are bound to come in handy when venturing towards the adult life, be it at the university level or further down the line at employment level.

The IB schools in Gurgaon and Delhi are always driving students towards becoming more independent and self reliant individuals – this is because the curriculum of IB board is not just about memorising chapters from textbooks, but rather about realistic training that is offered through a flexible combination of subjects at every level. Students become adept at driving their own learning which is also a key focus with the IB schools.

Some of the IB schools in India offer Cambridge programmes to the students in middle years – from Grades 6th to 10th. As with IB curriculum, the best IGCSE board school in Gurgaon will also heavily rely on discussions, debates, written assignments, oral presentations and teamwork exercises that further enhance a student’s engagement with society in a civic and responsible manner.

Every student is different and comes with his or her own set of high points as well as shortcomings. Therefore, it becomes imperative to engage a dedicated team of teachers and coaches who have a keen sense of determining every student’s strengths and weaknesses. They can then mutate the course of learning, suited to the individual child’s growth.

The IB board and Cambridge schools are extremely careful in selecting and employing the best of teachers to help build a student’s personality in the most dynamic fashion and make them ready for the rigors of after school life.

For reasons described above, the IB students tend to have an advantage over their peers from other school boards and this has been proved time and again by a lot of meritorious students who have secured admissions in reputed universities across the world.

Author bio - The Gurgaon based campus of Amity Global School enrolled its first batch of students in 2008 and has been helping young scholars imbibe the virtues of education year after year. A tailored approach to academics, sports and extra-curricular activities is the hallmark of the institution.
