• What is an IB School?

    HFES is proud to be an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP) school.

    IB develops:

    • Critical thinkers who question, investigate, and innovate.

    • Globally-minded learners who see multiple perspectives.

    • Students who care about people and the planet.

    Our IB framework emphasizes:

    • Inquiry-Based Learning: Students ask questions, explore, and discover.

    • Whole-Child Development: Social, emotional, and ethical growth.

    • Learner Profile: We nurture kids who are principled, caring, open-minded, balanced, and reflective.
