INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE
International Baccalaureate School
At Casvi International American School, we prepare our students to successfully meet the challenges of the Diploma Program (DP).
The International Baccalaureate Diploma Program is recognised worldwide and opens doors to the best universities in the world. It provides students with a stimulating educational experience, fostering a high level of cognitive skills development, understanding of different cultures, languages, and different perspectives.
We offer an international learning environment, following the American educational model and an inquiry-based teaching approach. Our goal is that, when students complete their school years, they face university life and their professional careers with confidence, following their own path.
In this final school stage, which is so important for their future, it is normal for many students to feel stress or nervousness. For this reason, at Casvi International American School, we have teaching staff specialized in International Baccalaureate to provide students with the support they need.
For us, it is very important that our students feel supported and maintain their enthusiasm for achieving all their goals. Our teachers are committed to teaching from the heart, so that students develop their abilities and skills to the fullest within an encouraging and inspiring environment.

Casvi International American School is an authorized center for all three International Baccalaureate Programs. Students have the option to continue with the American Program and study Grade 11 and Grade 12 or start the International Baccalaureate.
This last stage of the Diploma Program corresponds to our students’ last courses, before they go to university or start their professional career. The goal is to strengthen their social, research, thinking, self-management, and communication skills so that they graduate from our school as well prepared as possible.
In addition to the official written examinations, in order to complete the Diploma Program, students must carry out the following components:
- Theory of Knowledge: Introduces the student to reflection on the sources of knowledge.
- An Extended Essay (research paper): Similar in nature to a university-level final research project.
- Creativity, Action and Service Activities (CAS): Students must participate in different individual and group projects, including creative activities, physical or sports activities, and community service initiatives.
