The European School RheinMain (ESRM) is diversifying the educational pathways it can offer to students. As an alternative to the European School’s curriculum leading to the European Baccalaureate, students can choose to study towards the International Baccalaureate at the International School RheinMain (ISRM) – a sister school to the ESRM on the same premises. The ISRM will follow the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum, leading to the IB MYP Certificate and the IB Diploma. The ISRM is inviting the enrolment of students to commence in September 2021 in Grades 6, 7 and 8 (S1-S3) into the Middle Years Program (MYP).

More than 5000 schools worldwide teach IB programmes, giving students a unique education. The IB Diploma is accepted at universities around the globe.

What is the Middle Years Program?
