Amman Baccalaureate School

[EduCativ]

The Amman Baccalaureate School is a bilingual (Arabic/English), coeducational, K – 12, Jordanian day school located on the outskirts of Amman, the capital of Jordan. The School is an all-through International Baccalaureate (IB) World Continuum School, which offers the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) from KG1 to Grade 5, the IB Middle Years Programme from Grade 6 to Grade 10, and a choice of the IB Diploma Programme (DP) or the IB Career-related Programme (CP) to students in Grades 11 and 12. The School is one of less than 30 schools worldwide to offer all 4 IB Programmes and the first school in Jordan to do so.
The school was founded to provide a bilingual education that would meet, in quality and breadth, the highest international standards, whilst remaining firmly rooted in the Arab heritage and culture. At the same time, the school has increasingly attracted students from the international community who wish to take advantage of the opportunity offered in the Middle Years School and IB Diploma College to pursue an education in English which, nonetheless, sustains close contact with the culture of the host country.
The Amman Baccalaureate School is a school where modern educational theory and practice are implemented and enthusiastically embraced. Involvement with each student as an individual is a guiding principle at ABS. The high proportion of teachers to students (1:7) allows this principle to be a reality. This compares very favorably with institutions of similar academic standing, both nationally and internationally. On behalf of the entire staff, students and parents, I would like to welcome you to the Amman Baccalaureate School. There is no question that the ABS has established an excellent and well-deserved reputation in the Kingdom, regionally and internationally for providing an outstanding quality education for students from Primary School to the International Baccalaureate College.
Our staff embodies a wide range of experience and a wealth of enthusiasm. Our parents are tremendously supportive and contribute a huge amount of time and energy to the School. Our students throughout the School are lively, enthusiastic, and highly motivated, with the graduating class securing places at the most prestigious tertiary institutions in the UK, USA, Canada, Europe, and Jordan.
