London as our classroom

IB learners acquire the skills and knowledge to investigate problems in real-world contexts, and learning in central London enriches every student’s school experience. The city’s world-class universities, theatres, museums, galleries and exhibitions provide opportunities for each child to take their learning from our campus to every corner of our vibrant city. Our students could be beach combing on the Thames to explore the past, discovering the history of natural science in South Kensington’s museums, or enhancing their language skills by enjoying Mandarin or Spanish productions in London’s best theatres.
