IB International Schools Worldwide
BrightKey has evaluated 158 international schools teaching the IB across 39 cities worldwide. Browse independent ratings by city below.
The International Baccalaureate is the most globally portable curriculum — the same Diploma Programme is recognised by universities everywhere, which is why it dominates international-school offerings. Its strength is breadth (six subject groups plus the core: Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay, and CAS) and a genuinely international, inquiry-led ethos. It suits families who move often and want a qualification that travels, and children who thrive on a wide, connected workload rather than early specialisation.
Every city ranking draws on BrightKey's 6-dimension school ratings and public data. School-reported placement is always flagged and never tiered. We take no payments from any school.
