Which Students Will The IB Diploma Suit?

Those who:

  • Are good all rounders
  • Have skills/talents in particular areas.
  • Would like to study a wide range of subjects but because of particular strengths/weaknesses would like to study some subjects at a high level and others at a more basic level.
  • Are keen to get more involved in activities, drama, music, sport, charity events or community service, and who would like some of these activities to count towards their overall qualification.
  • Are interested in developing international links and the ability to communicate with/understand people from other countries and cultures.
  • Would like to work towards a qualification that is extremely well regarded by universities in Britain and across the world.
  • Would prefer to study towards a course that takes the best aspects from other academic and vocational courses, allowing them to develop into an individual that could be of great interest to universities and employers.
  • Have met the entry requirements of 6 C grades at GCSE with B grades in the subjects to be studied at Higher Level. International students must have IELTS 5.5 or above - in the form of an official certificate or when tested on entry.
  • Have studied a language previously - this is desirable but not essential.
