We are proud to announce that we are a candidate school with the International Baccalaureate® (IB). In our new Secondary School, from September 2018, we implement the The International Baccalaureate® (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) for students aged 11-16. In the future, we will also implement DP Programme of the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students aged 16-18.

BEPS recognises that early adolescence is a critical stage filled with individual and collective potential. We are committed to caring for learners, listening to their voices, respecting their concerns, and engaging them in meaningful and innovative educational experiences.

Secondary School is designed to meet the developmental needs of young adolescents and to bridge the transition from Primary School to High School.

At BEPS Secondary, students are supported by their mentors. They decide how they spend their flexible learning time, planning and setting targets and deadlines for the day and the week ahead. They learn to manage their time realistically. In the early MYP years, they need a significant amount of guidance with this, but by the end of the MYP and into the DP we hope that our students will be able to self-manage their learning time independently.

Students design and carry out personal projects by setting goals and developing research plans. They learn to take their interests beyond a superficial level and dig deeper into something that really inspires or excites them. They also assess their work and that of others. Giving and receiving feedback helps them to become more competent and confident learners.

At Secondary, our students will continue to develop their Personal Attributes to become successful young adults. They will deepen their understanding and will become: Inquirers, Knowledgeable, Thinkers, Communicators, Principled, Open-minded, Caring, Risk-takers, Balanced, Reflective
