International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme
The IBDP is an internationally recognised qualification and a rigorous pre-university course that aims to develop enquiring, driven, knowledgeable young people. Over the years, a number of our students have achieved a perfect score of 45 points in the IB Diploma – a score representative of the top 1% of all students worldwide. For some students, the full IB Diploma isn’t the right choice. They can opt instead to be registered as an IB Diploma Course student, where they study a combination of optional subjects and core elements of their choice.
