JBCN International School, Oshiwara is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School authorised to implement the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP).

The PYP offers an inquiry-based, transdisciplinary curriculum framework that builds conceptual understanding and provides engaging, relevant, challenging, and significant education. It is a learner-centred approach to education for children and reflects the best of educational research, thought leadership and experience derived from IB World Schools.

The programme offered in the Primary Years focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both in school and in the world beyond. With an equal emphasis on developing knowledge, skills and IB ‘Learner Profile’ attributes, the programme is designed to empower learners to take ownership of their own learning and become active participants in a lifelong journey of learning.
