Their five essential IB elements of assessment are knowledge, concepts, skills, learner profile and action.

appropriate”.
The school develops collaborative and teamwork skills by allowing their learners to explore themselves outside classrooms in activities that interest them. Their enrichment programs give students the opportunity to develop their vital future skills and some of them were shared by the school principal.
