An IB pathway with purpose
At WIS, we believe that how a child learns matters just as much as what they learn.
Our programmes are shaped by the International Baccalaureate framework, one of the most respected educational approaches in the world. The IB is not about memorising facts. It is about developing young people who think critically, ask meaningful questions, understand different perspectives and are ready to take on the challenges of a complex, fast-changing world.
From Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 10, WIS offers a continuous IB pathway. Students can then continue to the IB Diploma Programme at our sister school, the International High School of Wrocław, graduating with qualifications recognised by universities across Europe, North America and Asia.
A continuous IB pathway from early childhood to graduation
At WIS, students move through a well-structured IB pathway that supports them at each stage of their development. From the early years to the middle years, and through to the Diploma Programme offered by our sister school, we help students build the knowledge, skills and mindset they need for future success.
IB Primary Years Programme
(ages 4-11)
The PYP is designed for young learners at the beginning of their educational journey. It nurtures natural curiosity, encourages children to ask questions and makes connections across subjects rather than treating them in isolation.
At WIS, PYP students learn through exploration and inquiry. They develop confidence as learners, grow as communicators and begin to understand their place in the wider world — all within a caring, structured environment where every child is known and supported.
IB Middle Years Programme
(ages 11-16)
The MYP is a five-year programme that prepares students for the academic and personal challenges ahead. It goes beyond traditional subjects — encouraging students to make connections between what they learn in school and the world around them.
MYP students at WIS develop independent thinking, learn to manage their own learning and are challenged to grow not just academically but as people. The programme culminates in the Personal Project — a significant piece of independent work that every MYP5 student completes, demonstrating their ability to pursue a goal with commitment and creativity.
IB Diploma Programme
(ages 16-19)
Students who complete MYP at WIS can continue their IB journey at the International High School of Wrocław, our sister school, where they study the IB Diploma Programme.
The IB Diploma is one of the most demanding and widely recognised pre-university qualifications in the world. It opens doors to top universities globally and develops students who are genuinely prepared — not just academically, but intellectually and personally — for life beyond school.
IB Learner Profile
At the heart of every IB programme is the IB Learner Profile — a set of qualities that WIS actively develops in every student. We aim to nurture young people who are inquirers, thinkers, communicators, principled, open-minded, caring, risk-takers, balanced and reflective.
These are not abstract ideals. They shape how we teach, how students interact with each other and how our school community operates every day.
Wolves Athletic Program
Learning at WIS extends well beyond academic subjects. Our Wolves Athletic Program gives students from Grade 1 to Grade 12 the opportunity to compete in a wide range of sports at an international level — building teamwork, resilience and a genuine love of physical activity.
Student Services
We know that every child learns differently. Our Student Services team provides tailored support including English as an Additional Language (EAL), Mother Tongue language support and individual counselling.
No student at WIS is left to navigate challenges alone. Our teachers and support staff work together to ensure every child has what they need to thrive — academically, socially and emotionally.
Extra-curricular Activities
Our Enrichment Programme offers a broad selection of after-school activities led by teachers, parents and specialist coaches — from arts and music to robotics and languages. There is something for every student to discover, develop and enjoy.
