Senior School Program

Our student-centered approach ensures a sharp focus on how young people learn best, with an emphasis on conceptual mastery, critical thinking, and the ability to apply learning in real-world contexts. While our curriculum is anchored in the Cambridge IGCSE framework, it is enriched by our international context, exposing students to diverse voices, cultures, and perspectives.

Through a phased academic load, strong subject expertise, and a commitment to intellectual curiosity, Ivy students are prepared not only for examination success, but also for meaningful engagement with the world as confident, articulate, and globally minded individuals.
