IB World School BES guides students to be aware of their identity, heritage and development by providing them with multiple learning environments, various teaching approaches and rich resources. BES realizes each student has tremendous potential and encourages them to be bold in exploring the future, enlightening the world with their zest and curiosity. BES offers students aged 5 to 18 an excellent educational journey by integrating the Chinese National Curriculum within the IB framework of the PYP, MYP and DP Programmes. Beijing Enlighten School is an IB World School for the Primary Years Programme (PYP), and a candidate School for the Middle Years Programme (MYP) and the Diploma Programme (DP). This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that Beijing Enlighten School believes is important for our students. *Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme, or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit www.ibo.org. We help students learn to inquire while thinking deep and wide, as well as develop their communication skills, multicultural understanding, global mindedness and local connectedness. The BES staff team is comprised of Chinese foundation education specialists and international education experts. Together, we bring extensive understanding and insights of East and West, helping students become their best as national and global citizens. We guide each student not only towards academic excellence but also to develop outstanding character, developing into a whole person that they themselves are proud of and others are moved by.
