Academics

Kipling School teaches IB (PYP), IB (MYP), IB (DP) for students aged 3 to 18.

Curriculum
Kipling's primary program follows the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) for students aged 3 to 12. It centers on holistic development and inquiry-based learning, organized around six transdisciplinary themes: Who we are; Where we are in place and time; How we express ourselves; How the world works; How we organize ourselves; Sharing the planet. Learning takes place across six subject areas: Language and Literature, Language Acquisition, Mathematics, Science, The Arts, and Personal, Social and Physical Education. The PYP framework is flexible enough to accommodate most national or local curricula and provides the best preparation for continuing studies in the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP).

Belonging, respect, and love for knowledge define Kipling, and we aim to inspire people who change the world through truth, innovation, and solidarity.

Safety and nurturing are core to Kipling's safeguarding approach; the school emphasizes a safe and caring environment for all students.
Parent Experience

History
Having lived in an environment that did not offer the education we aspired for our children, we decided to change that reality, inspired by a genuine vocation and united by family, bringing together children and youth, teachers and students, and parents into an educational community to form well‑rounded individuals. We promote respect and value differences, fostering inclusion, cooperation and service to others, with the certainty that our students will better understand the world around them and grow as responsible global citizens. Kipling is a community passionate about the common good, and being Kipling means inspiring others to change the world in a positive way. Kipling Campus Satélite is an IB World School, authorized for more than ten years to offer three programmes that span from pre‑school to high school: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), and the Diploma Programme (DP). The school is named for Joseph Rudyard Kipling (born December 30, 1865, in Bombay, India; died January 18, 1936, in London, England), a renowned writer and poet whose works for children and young people include The Jungle Book, and who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907.

All students—from Preschool to High School—learn to be considerate and care for others, protect the environment, and engage in activities that strengthen their sense of responsibility for the community beyond the school. What is given to children, they will give to society, thus creating a better world.
