Why families choose an IB school?

Choosing the right educational path for one’s child is a monumental decision, and increasingly, families around the globe are turning to International Baccalaureate (IB) schools. Renowned for their rigorous academic standards and commitment to holistic student development, IB schools offer a distinctive educational experience that prepares students for personal and professional success in a globalized world.

Comprehensive Curriculum

The IB curriculum is acclaimed for its academic and personal rigor that helps students develop critical thinking skills, adaptability, and a global perspective. Unlike traditional curriculums that often focus primarily on rote learning, the IB curriculum encourages an inquiry-based learning approach. This method not only promotes a deeper understanding of subjects but also instills a lifelong passion for learning and exploration.

Development of a Global Perspective

In today’s interconnected world, having a global outlook is indispensable. IB schools foster this perspective through a multicultural environment where students from various backgrounds interact, share ideas, and collaborate on projects. This exposure is vital in cultivating students’ understanding and appreciation of different cultures and viewpoints, equipping them with the empathy and social skills needed to thrive anywhere in the world.

Emphasis on Personal Development

IB programs are unique in that they balance subject mastery with the development of the whole person. The curriculum includes components like the Theory of Knowledge (TOK), Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS), and the Extended Essay, which encourage students to engage in critical thinking, research, and self-reflection. Such activities are indispensable for personal growth and self-understanding, helping students to become thoughtful, informed, and responsible adults.

Preparation for Higher Education and Beyond

Universities around the world recognize the IB diploma as a sign of academic competence and preparedness for the rigors of tertiary education. IB graduates are noted for their research skills, time management, and ability to handle challenging coursework, which are highly valued in higher education and beyond. Moreover, the emphasis on extracurricular activities and community service in IB programs makes graduates well-rounded individuals who stand out in college applications and job interviews alike.

The choice of an IB school is a testament to a family’s commitment to a quality education that is comprehensive, globally minded, and values-driven. It is these qualities that many believe lay the foundation for not just academic success, but a fulfilling and impactful life.

Parent and Student Reviews

  • September, 2025
    Being rather shy, contained to himself and not speaking English our son started 7 years ago at grade 5. He developed to an open minded, critical person, self confident knowing about his talents and what he wants to look his life like. He made close friendships and even teachers became friends. Starting grade 12 this year he said that he doesn’t want school to end as he could not imagine to have a better time in life. What to say more?<div>P.S.: my older son attended a public &nbsp;school- the difference is tremendous!</div>

    Our two kids (16, 12) are attending the school now for 4, 3 years as day-students. We love the family-style environment as well as the stunning surrounding. The school offers great care for our kids and the great 1:5 teacher-stutent-ratio helps them to develop their skills and grow their personality! There is a broad variety of extra-curricular activities and our kids love to either develop their passion further or try something new… overall the best choice we could think of although the financial investment shall not be overseen!

    Our two kids have been at St. Gilgen International School since Grade 5 (now in Grades 6 and 8), and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The teachers truly know and support each child, and the community feels warm and welcoming.

    The location is absolutely stunning – surrounded by mountains and the lake – and the outdoor activities and experiences make this school so unique. Our kids love going to school, which says it all!

    Yes, it’s a big investment, but the education, personal growth, and opportunities they receive are worth every cent. We’re proud to be part of the St. Gilgen community.

  • This school has exposed my child to vaping, edibles, mobbing and many horrible things for an 8th grader within 1 year who came from a China controlled British school (dulwich) environment. They are focus on tuition and not academic progress. My child was placed in the wrong level and even after raising this issue nothing. The headmaster is rude and does not answer unless she wants to. I would not send any child to this school which is asking too much but is not worth the money you spend on your child’s education!  Really bad!

  • 4.I know the Krumbach school in Austria where my niece Anne Princess GAKIZA, orphan of father and mother studies. This school takes care of all her needs (school fees, travel and accommodation, health care and insurance, ect. ..) and develop the child’s talents. As legal guardian, I am very delighted to have my niece in Krumbach school and I would recommend this school without a second thought…The orphan has a wonderful time at school with excellent relationships and attention, love and adequate education. In addition to her strong open-mindedness in the scientific field, she is learning several languages ​​which is also a very pleasant tool to start for a long subsequent journey of study and learning!
    The school allows also for very organized control of the behavior and needs of students in a more specific and personalized way.
    I would like to thank all the staff and educational leaders of the school for the period already spent by my niece at Kumbrach school and the quality/service that was provided.
    An exceptional school attentive to the specific needs of children, in a wonderful environment for children to learn and develop their creativity.
    The school’s strong points are the maintenance of permanent liaison with parents, the communication of informations which trace the activities carried out by the children as well as the academic results of each term. You know it’s a good school when your child can’t wait to return at the end of the holidays.

  • Our son is in his third year at the school. And we can already form an opinion about everything.
    The first thing that sticks in the mind is the location: a castle on a mountain in the middle of the forest with an inexpressible view and always fresh air.
    Secondly, the daily routine and hygiene in everything is observed with Austrian pedantry.
    Third, the offices, lodging and recreation rooms, library, are modern and comfortable.
    Fourth, the new sports ground, bicycles, contribute to the physical development of students.
    Fifth, the kitchen, it deserves special praise. Diverse, full, healthy food. Special thanks for the days of cuisines of different nations. Pupils not only familiarize themselves with the dishes of the world, but also actively participate in their preparation.
    The sixth is collective, creative work. Joint productions of plays, cognitive visits to museums, theaters, exhibitions, movies, concerts. Annual outings for skiing and skating in winter, hiking in summer and tourist trips to European countries. This is a topic for a separate comment.
    And, finally, the seventh is the main thing. Educational process. Bilingualism! Education is a two-way process, teacher – student. The approach to the selection of teachers is serious. Not every teacher is able to be enthusiastic about his subject, complex to teach simply, while maintaining the subordination. It works here.
    There are no perfect schools, as well as people. The administration solves force-majeure circumstances, nuances in requirements, difficulties in adaptation of teenagers and young men (at the expense of their moral and physical health) skillfully, keeping the spirit of the school and the priority of education.
    We are sincerely grateful to all those who work, bring up, educate our son, showing him respect.
