ABIS CELEBRATES TEN YEARS AS IB WORLD SCHOOL BANK MUSCAT WINS OVER 30 INTERNATIONAL AND LOCAL AWARDS IN 2020

Al Batinah International School (ABIS) in Suhar is celebrating its 10th anniversary as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School. This is a milestone for ABIS, which joins a legacy of IB World Schools around the world to reach this landmark. The IB Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and the Diploma Programme are available to students to study at ABIS, which went through IB’S rigorous authorisation and evaluation process.

The Primary Years Programme (PYP) is studied by children aged 3 to 12 and offers an inquiry-based, transdisciplinary curriculum framework that builds conceptual understanding. The Middle Years Programme (MYP) is for students aged 11 to 16 and is a challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their studies and the real world.

The Diploma Programme (DP) is for students aged 16 to 19 and is comprised of six subjects including three DP core subjects.
