IB Mission for Gjøvik videregående skole

At the IB Diploma Programme at Gjøvik videregående skole, we strive to develop knowledgeable and inquiring young adults who possess the skills necessary to thrive in our complex world. 

We believe in fostering an intercultural and respectful community that values diversity and promotes compassion and care for others.  

We aim to provide our students with a well-rounded education that focuses on both academic and personal growth. Through our international curriculum, we encourage critical thinking and creativity, while promoting values such as empathy and respect. 

By encouraging these qualities in our students, we can create a community of compassionate and responsible global citizens who are prepared to face the challenges of the future.

Our mission is to empower our students to become active and engaged citizens who contribute to both their local communities and the world and become agents of positive change in society.

The IB mission

The International Baccalaureate® aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment.

These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
