Diploma Programme students
The two-year IB Diploma Programme curriculum presents you with many opportunities to demonstrate and to build on your positive qualities. It offers challenges—academic, artistic and sporting—as well as community responsibility, through the creativity, action, service (CAS) requirement.
During these two years, you will make friendships to last a lifetime, and will receive an education that will form a solid foundation for all your future achievements.
