About Us

After successfully making history in Nepali education Premier has yet again taken a forward-thinking step to redefine +2 experience through the implementation of the new national curriculum in an international standard. The one of a kind program which allows the students to build their own degree is designed with the learner and the future in mind. The future is no longer limited by the borders of a country or the availability of jobs. The future is about finding one’s passion, understanding the needs of the society and being resourceful enough to think beyond the boundaries of set subjects to create something of value to the society. Therefore, the unique individualized program of Premier School allows the students of today the freedom to explore their passion and address real life situations without the limitations of traditional rigid grouping of subjects.  

The educational framework of Premier International IB Continuum School is divided into:

  • Early Years
  • Primary Years
  • Middle Years
  • Senior High School - IB Diploma Programme (IBDP)
  • Senior High School - National Education Board

Being a part of Premier is being a part of an ever growing, forward-thinking community of caring leaders who are driven by the passion to bring a positive change in the society. Thus, the whole school community i.e., administration, faculty, students, and their parents are committed to learning about the changing needs of the society, questioning the status quo, and finding creative ways to serve the global society. This value deeply reflects in the schools' culture, the learning experiences, and character refinement of the students.

Early Years

The Early Years program prepares the students intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically for a smooth transition into formal education in Grade I through play based fun learning themes included in the IB Early Years Programme.

Students are provided with a balanced curriculum to develop enquiry, decision-making, problem solving and mathematical abilities, and early literacy skills- all of which are necessary for successful formal education.  Throughout Preschool, learning is enhanced through active participation in Physical Education, Music and Movement, Arts, Craft and Dance.

Students are taught in a mixed age group setting, allowing students to develop important skills and attitude such as empathy, social skills, decision making, collaboration and communication skills.

Premier is also a sister concern organization of Nepal’s first professional Montessori teacher’s training center, Nepal Montessori Training Center, giving the advantage of integrating the Montessori method of teaching within the IB PYP curriculum framework.

Primary Years

The IB PYP is an international curriculum framework for children between the ages 3 and 12 years. This program believes that each child has their own interest areas, personality, learning style and combination of intelligence types. Being a student in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) means that each child is given an opportunity to explore his/her interest areas through a balanced curriculum.

Students develop international mindedness and global citizenship through the incorporation of local and global issues into the curriculum by focusing on the six globally significant IB transdisciplinary themes.

Middle Years

The Middle School integrates the National Curriculum within the IB MYP curriculum framework to develop socially responsible global citizens.  Our Middle School program builds upon our strong Primary School program to successfully complete the IB MYP and the National Education Board exams in the 8th grade and 10th grade.

Student centered inquiry-based units, in the MYP, allow authentic opportunities to develop 21st century skills to adapt to the changing needs of the society. The units of study are set in real life global contexts so the students explore subject-specific knowledge, ATL skills, concepts to make practical connection between their study and the real world.

Senior High School - IB Diploma Programme (IBDP)

The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) programme is a two-year academically challenging and balanced programme for students between the ages of 16-19 years. The IBDP programme has gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading universities for its ability to prepare students for success at university and life beyond.

Students in the IBDP gain a balanced and future ready education through a wide range of subject choice and through their engagement in the core Diploma programme, The Extended Essay (EE), Theory of Knowledge(ToK) and Creativity, action, service (CAS). The extended essay requires students to engage in independent research, finishing with a 4,000 word paper, giving them an early university experience. The Creativity, Action, Service programme scaffolds students to grow both personally and socially through meaningful engagement in creative thinking, physical activity and community service activity alongside their academic studies. Theory of Knowledge develops critical thinkers as the programme requires the students to critically evaluate knowledge claims and judgements. 

Senior High School - National Education Board (NEB)

Our unique take on the NEB curriculum is designed with the learner and the future in mind. The future is about finding one’s passion, understanding the needs of the society and being resourceful enough to think outside the box. Our unique individualized program allows the students of today, the freedom to explore their passion and address real life situations without the limitations of traditional rigid grouping of subjects.
