Welcome to Dwight Seoul — founded in 2012 — the only school selected by the Seoul Municipal Government to open a model IB World School in Seoul. We are also the first IB Continuum School in Seoul offering the PYP, MYP, and DP.

Our graduates receive admissions to some of the top universities in the U.S., Canada, UK, Japan, and Hong Kong.

Located in Seoul’s Digital Media City, home to many of Korea’s broadcasters and movie makers, our campus is a state-of-the-art, 200,000 square-foot facility. It features an indoor gymnasium and outdoor soccer field, a dance studio, large climbing wall, a Makerspace Lab, a Bakerspace, drama and broadcast studios, an art gallery, music rooms, a 455-seat performing arts center, rooftop garden, and brand-new library named the Spark of Genius Center.

Being part of a global network is advantageous in today’s interconnected world.  It provides all our Schools, students, faculty, and staff with opportunities to collaborate and learn from each other, share resources, and innovate to ignite the spark of genius in everyone. 

When students participate in cultural exchange, language learning, and international collaboration, they develop a global mindset, preparing them for success in a rapidly changing world. Faculty and staff, too, benefit by having access to a wider pool of resources and expertise, increased professional development opportunities, and the ability to relocate to another School. By connecting as a global community, HeadStart Schools demonstrate a commitment to excellence in education and a willingness to go beyond their own borders to ensure students are ready for the exciting world of possibilities that awaits them.
