Academics

Kipling School teaches IB (PYP), IB (MYP), IB (DP) for students aged 3 to 18.

Curriculum

Kipling's primary program follows the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) for students aged 3 to 12. It centers on holistic development and inquiry-based learning, organized around six transdisciplinary themes: Who we are; Where we are in place and time; How we express ourselves; How the world works; How we organize ourselves; Sharing the planet. Learning takes place across six subject areas: Language and Literature, Language Acquisition, Mathematics, Science, The Arts, and Personal, Social and Physical Education. The PYP framework is flexible enough to accommodate most national or local curricula and provides the best preparation for continuing studies in the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP).
