A Review of thePhilosophy ofInternational Education inanInternational School Setting
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Research & Method in Education (IOSRJRME) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
International Schools have long been thought of as bastions of international education due to many similar attributes that they share. However, international education in the true spirit of its philosophy goes beyond the education that takes place in some typical international school settings that tend to concentrate more on the syllabus of certain international examination bodies. This theoretical argument revisits the notion of international education and international schools using an array of scholarly literature that explicates their history and salient features before weighing up the former against the latter in terms of its applicability. A typical international school is then assessed against the criteria that are definitive of international education. The analysis revealed that despite having met the criteria in some areas, it was found wanting largely in the more significant aspects of the type of holistic education, understanding of diversity and forbearance advocated in international education.
