Background on IB - World Schools

The International Baccalaureate® (IB) does not own, operate or manage any schools. Instead, they work in partnership with 3,085 IB World Schools in 139 countries who offer their programmes. These schools:

• share the mission and commitment of the IB to quality international education
• have been authorized by the IB to offer one or more of our three programmes
• play an active and supporting role in the worldwide community of IB schools
• share their knowledge and experience in the development of the IB programmes
• are committed to the professional development of teachers.

The interdependent nature of the relationship between IB World Schools and the IB is a unique and a defining characteristic of the worldwide IB community.

History of the International Baccalaureate®

The International Baccalaureate® (IB) was founded in Geneva, Switzerland in 1968 as a non-profit educational foundation.

A group of talented, forward-thinking teachers at the International School of Geneva, with assistance from several other international schools, created the IB Diploma Programme. What started life as a single programme for internationally mobile students preparing for university, has today grown into three programmes for students aged 3 to 19.

The programme in the early days consisted of a common pre-university curriculum and a common set of external examinations for students in schools throughout the world, seeking to provide students with a truly international education. Although the first IB schools were predominantly private international schools, they included a very small number of private national institutions and schools belonging to state education departments. This has changed over the years and today over half of all IB World Schools (authorized to offer one or more of our programmes) are state schools.
