To create an ecosystem that will expose local students to international education system, the Andhra Pradesh Government has asked the International Baccalaureate (IB), a non-profit foundation headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, to establish an IB University in the State.
The proposal has been made to the IB representatives by the State officials at the Asia level and the government is awaiting a response from their side. “The Government has offered its full support to the IB team to set up its project here,” said Principal Secretary, School Education, Praveen Prakash.
Speaking to The Hindu, Mr. Praveen Prakash said such a project would foster serious academic research, teacher trainings and other aligned activities.
