All International Baccalaureate® (IB) schools encourage students, parents, and staff members to be mindful of the IB Learner Profile. This profile names ten different attributes, which the school believes all learners should demonstrate:
Caring, thinkers, risk-takers, open-minded, balanced, inquirers, knowledgeable, communicators, principled, and reflective.
IB schools encourage these attributes through purposeful teaching, learning and student self-reflection. It is the goal of all IB schools that students, parents, and staff members be continually reflective of these ten attributes and constantly look to better themselves through their work. Primary Years Programme (PYP) teachers will use the Learner Profile traits with students to have them explore their own passions and traits. Expansion of the IB will bring the Learner Profiles into the culture of the school and provides social-emotional learning framework.
