The Hague School’s application for authorization for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme was approved as of 20 April 2021. The school’s candidacy period for authorization as an IB World School formally began on 1 September 2019 with its inaugural class. This same class became our first Diploma Programme students in September 2021, along with a few students who have joined us along the way. IB World Schools share a common philosophy – a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education – that we believe is important for our students.
