Nous avons choisi de proposer l'International Baccalaureate car c'est l’un des diplômes de fin de scolarité les plus reconnus et respectés au monde.
Créé pour répondre aux besoins des élèves à mobilité internationale, il est aujourd’hui proposé dans plus de 5000 établissements répartis dans plus de 150 pays et suivi par plus de deux millions d’élèves à travers le monde. L’IB bénéficie d’une reconnaissance officielle par les universités les plus sélectives, en Europe, au Royaume-Uni, en Amérique du Nord et à l’international, qui saluent la solidité académique du diplôme, la rigueur de l’évaluation et la maturité intellectuelle des élèves qui en sont issus. Organisé par l’International Baccalaureate Organization, organisme indépendant à but non lucratif, l’IB constitue une référence mondiale pour les familles recherchant un parcours exigeant, lisible et reconnu au-delà des frontières nationales.
Les trois dernières années de la scolarité constituent l’une des périodes les plus déterminantes du parcours d’un élève. La classe de seconde permet à l’équipe éducative d’accompagner les élèves en ouvrant leurs horizons et en les aidant à affiner leurs centres d’intérêt. Les deux années suivantes permettent d’approfondir des disciplines choisies avec exigence, de développer une véritable maturité intellectuelle et de commencer à dessiner les orientations académiques et personnelles qui s’ouvriront après le baccalauréat. C’est également un temps fort de construction personnelle, où se nouent des amitiés durables et où se forge l’identité du futur étudiant.
À Concordia, les élèves sont accompagnés afin d’atteindre leur meilleur niveau académique tout en s’épanouissant pleinement dans leurs choix de spécialisation. Ils sont encouragés à saisir les nombreuses opportunités qui s’offrent à eux et à aborder le processus d’orientation et d’admission universitaire avec confiance et lucidité.
Concordia est actuellement engagée dans le processus de candidature pour devenir un établissement candidat au programme IB et proposer ainsi le Diplôme du Baccalauréat International.
At Concordia, we believe that the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme represents one of the most rigorous and well-rounded preparations for university study and life beyond school. This two-year programme is widely recognised for its academic depth, intellectual challenge and international perspective.
More than an examination system, the IB is built on a strong educational philosophy rooted in inquiry, critical thinking and global citizenship. It is designed to develop not only academic excellence, but also the values and dispositions that characterise thoughtful, responsible and engaged learners.
The IB rests on a number of key principles:
- Students should be literate and numerate, scientifically curious and linguistically agile;
- Education should extend beyond examinations, nurturing creativity through the arts, well-being through physical activity, and compassion through service;
- Schools should promote strong values, including academic honesty, integrity, open-mindedness and international understanding.
At Concordia, every student is encouraged to be curious, creative and critically aware, and to explore their full potential.
We are currently in the process of applying for IB authorisation and working closely towards offering the IB Diploma Programme at Concordia.
The Learner Profile serves as a compass for all aspects of the IB, making it a coherent experience. It offers a vision of the ‘whole student’ and is focused on ten key characteristics of ‘lifelong learners’.
IB learners strive to be:
Inquirers
They develop their natural curiosity. They acquire the skills necessary to conduct inquiry and research and show independence in learning. They actively enjoy learning and this love of learning will be sustained throughout their lives.
Knowledgeable
They explore concepts, ideas, and issues that have local and global significance. In so doing, they acquire in-depth knowledge and develop understanding across a broad and balanced range of disciplines.
Thinkers
They exercise initiative in applying thinking skills critically and creatively to recognise and approach complex problems, and make reasoned, ethical decisions.
Communicators
They understand and express ideas and information confidently and creatively in more than one language and in a variety of modes of communication. They work effectively and willingly in collaboration with others.
Principled
They act with integrity and honesty, with a strong sense of fairness, justice, and respect for the dignity of the individual, groups, and communities. They take responsibility for their own actions and the consequences that accompany them.
Open-minded
They understand and appreciate their own cultures and personal histories, and are open to the perspectives, values, and traditions of other individuals and communities. They are accustomed to seeking and evaluating a range of points of view, and are willing to grow from the experience.
Caring
They show empathy, compassion, and respect towards the needs and feelings of others. They have a personal commitment to service, and act to make a positive difference to the lives of others and to the environment.
Risk-takers
They approach unfamiliar situations and uncertainty with courage and forethought, and have the independence of spirit to explore new roles, ideas, and strategies. They are brave and articulate in defending their beliefs.
Balanced
They understand the importance of intellectual, physical, and emotional balance to achieve personal well-being for themselves and others.
Reflective
They give thoughtful consideration to their own learning and experience. They are able to assess and understand their strengths and limitations in order to support their learning and personal development.
