The International Baccalaureate (IB) Learner Profile describes a broad range of human capacities and responsibilities that go beyond academic success. They imply a commitment to help all members of the school community learn to respect themselves, others and the world around them.

​

The profile aims to develop learners who are:
 

• Inquirers

• Knowledgeable

• Thinkers

• Communicators

• Principled

• Open-minded

• Caring

• Risk-takers

• Balanced

• Reflective 

​

Participation in the St. Edward High School International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) is a privilege earned through a student’s demonstration of dedication to the St. Edward High School mission. Work ethic, organizational skills, and intellectual ability are important, but not at the expense of aspiring to be faithful, inquiring, knowledgeable, thinking, communicative, principled, open-minded, caring, risk- taking, balanced, reflective Christ-like servant leaders with hope to bring.

​

​

• Lives the St. Edward High School mission while at school and abroad
