The IB Learner Profile

The IB learner profile developed by the IBO reflects the skills that we aim to develop at BSM through the IB programme and mirrors the BSM whole school mission statement.

The attributes and descriptors of the learner profile define the type of learner the IBO hopes to develop through its programme which promotes the education of the whole person, emphasising intellectual, personal, emotional and social growth through all domains of knowledge.

By focusing on the dynamic combination of knowledge, skills, independent critical and creative thought and international-mindedness, the IBO espouses the principle of educating the whole person for a life of active, responsible global citizenship.

The aim of the IB programme is to develop internationally minded people who, recognising their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better and more peaceful world.
