CBSE, CISCE, IB, IGCSE or State board details of different school boards in India,Syllabus, IB international curriculum where subjects are taught in an integrated way in order to avoid a fragmented approach. IB has a different approach with few textbooks. Students are free to explore the world.
In the United States today, there are Diploma Programme. At these schools, some students complete the full IB curriculum in pursuit of what’s called an IB Diploma
The IB works with 3,811 schools in 147 countries and offers three programs to over 1,191,000 students aged 3 to 19. In the United States alone there are 1,531 IB World Schools, although most would not be considered international schools as the programs typically compliment rather than replace local curriculums.
In 2011, nearly 7 percent of U.S. university applicants to universities had an IB Diploma, even though the qualification was offered in only 2 percent of U.S. high schools. These data are suggestive of a curriculum and assessment scheme that is highly regarded for university entry.
The IBO currently offers three separate curriculums: the Primary Years Program (3-19), the Middle Years Program (11-16) and the Diploma Program (16-19). The three programs build upon each other, with six transdisciplinary themes of global significance explored in the Primary Years Program (PYP), along with six subject areas (arts; language; mathematics; physical, social and personal education; science; and social studies).
The Middle Years Program (MYP) builds on the learning undertaken at the PYP level and retains many of the core methodological concepts, seeking to make real-world connections across the curriculum. The IB MYP is based on classes and assessment in eight subject areas (English, second language, humanities, science, mathematics, the arts, physical education and technology). Students must also complete a personal project in grade 10 designed to build independent study skills.
The IB Diploma is an integrated liberal arts program of study, which requires students to take classes and assessment in six subject areas (including a second language) across a range of disciplines to ensure breadth of knowledge.
Students take written examinations at the end of the program, which are marked by external IB examiners. Results from these examinations are supplemented by in-class assessment tasks, which are either initially marked by teachers and then moderated by external moderators or sent directly to external examiners. The marks awarded for each course range from 1 (lowest) to 7 (highest).
IB Diploma Program is considered to be more academically rigorous than most national curriculums,, comparing the IB with domestic secondary qualifications, concluded that it was the “top passport to international education.”
However, there are two courses that I would recommend to you. Both are 2 year diplomas (just like the IGCSE certificates). … International Baccalaureate (IB) – The IB is a great diploma program.

The IGCSE ‘core’ curriculum consists of a First Language, Second Language, Mathematics, and one or more subjects in the area of science. English, Mathematics, and the Sciences are the IGCSE Core subjects. A student can also choose to study other subjects ranging from Social Sciences to Arts & Technology. For the schools also the IGCSE curriculum proves to be very flexible and it comes with excellent resources and training. Out of these 70 subjects offered by IGCSE, 30 are languages and the schools can choose to offer them in any combination.
