IB Letter and Statement

We are very excited to announce to the OIS community that we have recently received confirmation that our application for candidacy was accepted by the IB Organization. The OIS administration will be working very closely with the IB Organization as we aligned our school with the IB philosophy. Our intention is to be granted authorization to offer the Diploma Programme (DP) starting in September 2019. Oxford International School is a candidate school* for the Diploma Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy- a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education- that we believe is important for our students. This achievement marks a very important milestone in our strategic plan for school development.

* Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee

that authorization will be granted.
