IBS ensures that diverse learners all have the opportunity    to learn challenging content and achieve at high levels    because we are aware of their individual needs. We seek    to provide an individualized approach to their learner    needs. Whenever possible, we seek to maintain their    participation in the regular classroom.    Using a unique team approach, our well-trained teaching    staff work together to make plans that meet the IBS    curriculum objectives. In a collaborative effort they focus    on process writing, skills, information seeking strategies.    Students add to the skills learned in the media center by    using internet searching and word processing. A multimedia    production center, set up in the conference room, gives all    students an opportunity to use CD’s, Power Point, and    computers as a part of the curriculum.    Believing in continuous improvement, our teachers strive to    improve each day by sharing ideas, reading professional    materials and implementing new teaching strategies.    However, we also offer school based in service and    opportunities to attend professional conferences. There    have been several outstanding workshops for teachers    every year which have dealt with best teaching practices.    Our school uses staff evaluations, the results of student assessment, and school review to make decisions on how    well we are succeeding and how to do better.    Teacher professional development has improved teaching at our school by providing us with the best practices of    successful educators as well as the results of brain based research which improve learning. Workshops on Strategies,    Cooperative Learning, the Eight Multiple Intelligences, Responsibility Training, and on going training in technology    have completely changed teaching and learning from what it was ten years ago. Professional development is the    key to success with teachers as learners.    The IBS teaching staff consists of Native English Speakers from Great Britain, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA,    and other English nations. There are also teachers from Asia who hold masters degree. All IBS teaching staffs are    specialized in their own field of education to be able to prepare the students in achieving their goals in life.
