Take me to ibo.org to learn about the Programmes and the IB Learner Profile

The IB Learner Profile

The unifying element across al IB programmes is the IB Learner Profile, describing those who are empowered to help create a better and more peaceful world. IB learners are:

  • Inquirers
  • Knowledgeable
  • Thinkers
  • Risk-takers
  • Communicators
  • Open-minded
  • Balanced
  • Principled
  • Reflective, and
  • Caring

At ISB, we have – of course! – added our core value Playful to the IB Learner Profile.

By placing PLAY at the heart of education, ISB nurtures every child's natural desire to LEARN.
