We are pioneers of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in Santa Marta, opening doors to the world for our students.
At Bureche School, the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme invites our students to go beyond the classroom, developing critical thinking, rigorous research, and an international mindset.
Through meaningful experiences such as the Extended Essay, CAS, and Theory of Knowledge, we guide each student in building the skills that prepare them for future academic and personal challenges. Our commitment is to shape young people who are principled, independent, and capable of making a positive impact on their communities, always guided by the values and excellence that define Bureche.
The IB Diploma is much more than a certificate—it is a transformative learning experience. At Bureche School, we provide you with all the tools you need to reach your fullest potential and become a global citizen.
It forms balanced, critical and reflective individuals.
It empowers students to face future challenges.
It fosters empathy and respect for other cultures.
It encourages research and informed decision-making.
At Bureche School, we offer this programme of academic excellence that prepares you to face the challenges of the future.
These attributes entail a commitment to helping all members of the school community learn to respect themselves, others and the world around them.
Each IB programme is committed to developing the profile of the IB learning community in the student body.
