ABE is proud to announce that Ryan Global School, Mumbai, part of the prestigious Ryan Group of Institutions, and an authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, has become the first school globally to offer ABE qualifications as an IB Career-related Study (CRS) option. For Ryan Global School, which offers the Career-related Programme (CP), this collaboration between ABE and the IB empowers CP students with globally recognised, career-focused qualifications that open new pathways in higher education and employment.
Stefanie Leong, Head of Development, Asia Pacific, International Baccalaureate, shared:
“We are excited that Career-related Programme (CP) students will be able to gain even more avenues to explore their interests and continue to develop into independent, globally minded citizens of the world. With ABE’s focus on providing practical business education with progression routes to a wide range of global universities, we believe the CP’s practical, real-world approaches to learning, combined with ABE’s courses, will further enhance CP’s students entrepreneurial and leadership skills – skills which are highly valued by many industries today. We look forward to ensuring the CP continues to be of relevance to our future generations.”
By integrating ABE’s Level 3 Diplomas into its IBCP offering, Ryan Global School continues its tradition of educational innovation and commitment to providing students with world-class opportunities. The school is now officially accredited to offer these qualifications and leads the way as the first institution to implement them within the IB framework.
Speaking about the partnership, Vinayak Sudhakar, ABE Regional Manager for India, Nepal and Bhutan, said:
"I am elated that students from the Ryan Group of Schools will now have access to ABE’s globally respected Level 3 Diplomas, which carry valuable UCAS points. These qualifications will broaden students’ learning experiences, offering them enjoyable, practical, and diverse pathways at high school. My sincere thanks to respected Dr A.F. Pinto, Chairman, Madam Grace Pinto, Managing Director, of Ryan Group of Institutions, Mr Ryan Pinto, Ms Sonal Pinto, and Dr Snehal Pinto for their constant vision and support in bringing the very best educational opportunities to their students."
Adding to this, Rob Kindness, ABE Sales Director for Asia Pacific, MENA, and Europe, commented:
"Heartfelt congratulations to the senior management, staff, and students at Ryan Global School, India. ABE is proud to be working with one of the largest and most respected school groups in India to provide our world-class Level 3 Diplomas to their learners. Importantly, all ABE qualifications are regulated by Ofqual, the UK government’s qualifications regulator, ensuring they meet the highest standards in delivery, assessment, and academic rigour. My sincere thanks to Ms Snehal Pinto and the entire senior leadership team at the Ryan Group of Institutions for making this valuable partnership a reality. I wish everyone involved every success and look forward to a long and rewarding collaboration."
Reflecting on this milestone, Dr Snehal Pinto, Director, Ryan Group of Schools, said:
“At the outset, we are grateful to God Almighty for enabling us to serve the children of this nation through holistic Education. We are truly delighted that Ryan Global School is now an accredited ABE Centre to offer L3 Diplomas to students and is the first in the world to offer the programme as part of the IBCP programme. We believe that this collaboration will definitely open up a world of opportunities to our students in business, entrepreneurship and leadership, thus enriching their learning journey from classroom to boardroom.”
This exciting collaboration marks a significant milestone in international education, offering students enhanced academic and career opportunities through the combined strength of the IB Career-related Programme and ABE’s professional qualifications.
