The International Baccalaureate (IB) offers four high quality, challenging educational programmes to students aged 3 to 19. The IB programmes focus on fostering critical thinking and building problem-solving skills, while encouraging diversity, international mindedness, curiosity, and a healthy appetite for learning and excellence. An IB education provides students distinct advantages as they enter a world where asking the right questions is as important as discovering answers.

Innovations in teaching-learning methodologies by devising students friendly and students centered paradigms.
Reforms in examinations and evaluation practices.
Skill learning by adding job-oriented and job-linked inputs.
Regularly updating the pedagogical skills of the teachers and administrators by conducting in service training programmes, workshops etc.
