They support schools and school systems post-authorization in achieving their optimum teaching, learning, and assessment objectives.
The Head of School or the IB programme coordinator can find out who is the Senior IBWS Manager by logging into MyIB and navigating to MySchool. On the new page, locate Your IB Contact on the left-hand side menu to locate the contact information for your Senior IBWS Manager.
