The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) is a two-year educational programme primarily aimed at students aged 16–19.

The program provides an internationally accepted qualification for entry into higher education and is recognised by many universities worldwide.

It was developed in the early to mid-1960s in Geneva, Switzerland, by a group of international educators.

After a six-year pilot programme ended in 1975, a bilingual diploma was established.

The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP), sometimes referred to as pre-IB, is an educational program for students between the ages of 11 to 16 around the world as part of the International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum.

MYP is intended to prepare students for the two-year IB Diploma Programme (IBDP).

The International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) is an educational programme managed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students aged 3 to 12.

While the programme prepares students for the IB Middle Years Programme, it is not a prerequisite for it.

The subject areas of the PYP are language, social studies, mathematics, science and technology, arts, and personal, social and physical education.

Students are required to learn a second language during the programme.

Assessment is carried out by teachers according to strategies provided by the IB, and with respect to guidelines to what the students should learn specified in the curriculum model.

A school is an institution designed to provide learning spaces and learning environments for the teaching of students (or "pupils") under the direction of teachers.

Most countries have systems of formal education, which is commonly compulsory.

In these systems, students progress through a series of schools.

The names for these schools vary by country (discussed in the Regional section below) but generally include primary school for young children and secondary school for teenagers who have completed primary education.

An institution where higher education is taught, is commonly called a university college or university.

Educational assessment is the systematic process of documenting and using empirical data on the knowledge, skill, attitudes, and beliefs to refine programs and improve student learning.

Assessment data can be obtained from directly examining student work to assess the achievement of learning outcomes or can be based on data from which one can make inferences about learning.

Assessment is often used interchangeably with test, but not limited to tests.

Assessment can focus on the individual learner, the learning community (class, workshop, or other organized group of learners), a course, an academic program, the institution, or the educational system as a whole (also known as granularity).

The word 'assessment' came into use in an educational context after the Second World War.
