Experience the IB Advantage
At HWA International School, our IB programme encompasses three stages:
How Do We Teach?
The International Baccalaureate (IB) education framework promotes learning outside the classroom as an essential component of student development. Through field trips, service learning, experiential activities, outdoor education, global engagement, and reflection, the IB encourages students to explore real-world contexts, apply their knowledge and skills, develop a sense of social responsibility, and foster intercultural understanding. Learning outside the classroom enriches students’ educational experiences, stimulates curiosity, and prepares them to be active and compassionate global citizens.
Bi-cultural Perspectives Teaching
Our carefully curated curriculum provides an engaging and dynamic learning experience where you can develop proficiency in languages. Explore diverse subjects, engage in interactive activities, and expand your cultural horizons.
Bicultural Campus Environment
Embrace the power of diversity in our bicultural campus and PYP bilingual classroom. Our curriculum fosters a deep understanding and respect for both cultures, allowing students to explore traditions, languages, and perspectives.

Our Features
Every teacher who works with us is fully qualified and trained in the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme.
Conceptual understanding is the key feature in HWA PYP UoI. Students will explore the concepts through carefully planned lessons so that they will gain deep understanding within and beyond subject areas.
Approaches to learning (ATL) skills are incorporated through meticulous planning to support student learning. The skills are taught and reinforced in every unit with the aim of developing independent learning and encouraging application of what they have learnt in unfamiliar situations.
Every UoI taught in HWA presents to the students the perspectives from the Western and Eastern culture, thereby promoting attitudes contributing to the well-being of the learners and their learning communities. These attitudes promote international-mindedness among the HWA international community.
Action, in the form of a project or service to the learning community, follows naturally from a successful inquiry conducted.
Student reviews
What students say?
I am now studying at MONASH University in Melbourne, Australia majoring in both Psychology and Philosophy. What I liked most about the IB is the fact that we had access to diverse subject areas including languages, sciences, humanities as well as arts. Studying these subjects allowed me to have more opportunities for subject choices at university. I wish all students would enjoy their IB life and be prepared for uni!
I have been in HWA since primary school. HWA is an international school with students from all over the world from that have different cultures and languages. As an IB school a lot of our projects allowed us to work together so we become more mindful and open minded about other cultures.
Having small student classes allowed the teachers to pay us attention to nurture our strengths. My DP teachers guided me to find my calling to pursue a career in Nursing.
I am not the typical China student: strong in math with top grades. My student life experience at HWA gave me the opportunity & experience to become a published author at China’s People Press.
HWA support and guidance helped me get into one of my dream Universities.
As an IB Diploma graduate at HWA, I am proud to have done the programme at the school. What I learned through the IB is unforgettable and meaningful. It has taught me about researching skills, how to think from different perspectives, and how to write a good academic paper. HWA emphasizes the spirit of the IB, and I believe every student will grow with their teachers and peers until the very end.
