IB World Schools Yearbook 2026: the Official Guide to Offering International Baccalaureate Primary Years, Middle Diploma and Career related Programmes

The IB offers four high quality and challenging educational programmes for a worldwide community of schools, aiming to develop internationally minded people who, recognising their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better, more peaceful world. Schools that have achieved the high standards required for authorisation to offer one or more of the IB programmes are known as IB World Schools. There are more than 5,800 of these schools and this number is growing annually. This Yearbook is divided into four sections:1. General information about the IB and IB programmes. 2. Information on IB World Schools within each region, including profiles and a directory of all schools. 3. Appendices containing information and lists relevant to the IB, including IB associations, university acknowledgement of the Diploma Programme, country representation and a list of IB Diploma Programme subjects offered. 4. Index of all schools listed geographically and alphabetically by name.
