• ask challenging academic oriented questions
• learn how to achieve in the fast moving business world
• develop a strong sense of their own identity and culture awareness
• Develop the ability to communicate and understand people from other countries and cultures.
Students will be advised by their teachers and the IB Coordinator as to whether or not it will be feasible to attempt the full IB Diploma, according to personal abilities and further academic goals. Students study five core subjects (first language, second language, social studies, science, and mathematics) at the IB level for one or two years. They choose an additional Sixth Subject from any of the core subject areas or from the arts. All three parts of the core—extended essay, theory of knowledge and creativity, action, service—are compulsory and are central to the philosophy of the Diploma Program. At the end of the two-year program, students are assessed both internally and externally in ways that measure individual performance against stated objectives for each subject.
