The International Baccalaureate

The MYP offers La Citadelle’ students an international framework of academic challenges and life skills appropriate to their stage of adolescence and foster the following goals and objectives:
 |
To provide an internationally recognized academic program for highly able and motivated students |
|
To stimulate and strengthen students' intellectual curiosity |
|
To teach students to recognize relationships between school subjects and the outside world |
|
To foster students' ability to combine knowledge, experience, and critical observation |
|
To foster students' growth toward self-reliance and responsible participation in society |
|
To help students become active, compassionate and lifelong learners and to understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right. |
The International Baccalaureate Organization
The IBO was established in 1968 in Geneva, Switzerland, by an international association of educators who sought to create a comprehensive curriculum with consistent assessment standards adaptable to any country.
Its goal was to develop truly global citizens capable of succeeding in university programs around the world. Over time, this developed into a high quality, global programme of international education recognized by the best-known universities in the world. The roster of IB World Schools has grown to some 1,800 institutions in 122 countries, with over 40 schools in Ontario.
