We're thrilled to share some highly anticipated and exciting news with you. Starting in September, the Dilijan Central School, another school in the Ayb system, will introduce a high school component, offering education through the internationally recognized Araratian Baccalaureate (AB) program. The School is licensed to provide secondary public education and will ensure a holistic educational experience.
Beyond its educational impact, this news also holds significant value for the community. This is a unique opportunity for the new generation of an entire community to access a comprehensive and value-based Armenian-language education that meets international standards in their community and familiar environment, opening doors to the top higher education institutions in Armenia and the world's most prestigious HEIs.
Established by the Ayb Educational Foundation in collaboration with the Central Bank, Dilijan Central School is the second education institution to join the AB school network. The Ayb Educational Foundation created the AB with the goal of making high-quality education accessible to everyone. Introducing the program at the new school is a significant milestone on the path to fulfilling our mission.
Let us recall that the Araratian Baccalaureate is an Armenian-language program that has been recognized by Cambridge Assessment International Education and UK NARIC as equivalent to UK A-levels & American AP.
