International Baccalaureate (IB)
The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring young people who help create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end, the organization works with schools, governments, and international organizations to develop challenging international education programs and rigorous assessments. These programs encourage students worldwide to become active, compassionate, and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
Primary Years Program (PYP)
IB (International Baccalaureate) is a non-profit program founded in 1968, currently available in over 150 countries. The curriculum aims to help students develop and excel as people and learners. It is designed to inspire a genuine love for learning which is vital for their academic growth and progress. Students from the age of three to nineteen can choose an International Baccalaureate education. The Primary Years Program is offered at NLIS to students aged from 6 to 12 (PYP-1 to PYP-6)
Middle Years Program (MYP)

«I like when students from different countries get together to share their learning and perspectives. I love NLIS because it has a very positive atmosphere around it. A good learning for me to be knowledgeable and be able to take risks for learning new things.»
