A Swiss non-profit, working since 1968. Its programmes are among the most widely recognised school programmes in the world. Authorisation is granted stage by stage, so a school with the final stage does not necessarily run the younger ones; which stages this school holds is set out in the line below.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: DP (ages 16-19). DP is the final stage, ages 16 to 19: six subjects plus a compulsory core of theory of knowledge, an extended essay and CAS. The diploma is accepted by universities all over the world, and in a number of countries it counts for admission on the same footing as the local leaving certificate.
Register to check for yourself, and the full guide →The state school programme of the country the school stands in: it is set by that country's ministry of education, which also licenses the school and awards the leaving certificate. That certificate is used for entry to local universities, and abroad it is matched to the local one.
What this means for this school. This entry does not count towards the score, and that is deliberate. Every lawful school in a country works to the national programme, so on its own it tells one school apart from no other - unlike the French, German or Russian programmes, which are carried abroad and confirmed by the register of their organisation. We show it because a parent needs to know what programme their child is taught and what certificate the child will get. Counting it would lift the whole ranking at once and still tell nobody apart.
A group of private schools, co-educational and non-denominational, for pupils from 1 to 18 years old. The numbers diverge: the home page and the "Our schools" section speak of 125 schools in 30 countries and more than 95,000 pupils, the "About Inspired" page - of "100+" schools. Offices are given in London, Madrid, Milan, Johannesburg, Dubai, Sydney, Auckland, Brazil and Mexico City. The form of the connection with the schools and the year of foundation are not named on the site.
What this means for this school. The network owns or operates the school. Its accreditation and programme authorisation the school obtains separately, in its own name.
Eleva Educação - a Brazilian school education company founded in 2013; in 2022 it changed its name to Grupo Salta Educação, and the site for investors sets this out as the history of one company. As of 2023 some 118,000 pupils are named in 170 schools in 16 states and the Federal District, and more than 13,000 staff. The "Our Schools" section lists 28 school brands, among them pH, Elite, Pensi, Sigma, Coleguium, Santi, Motivo and Pitágoras; the Eleva brand is not among them. The form of the relations with the schools is not named on the site.
