What is the IB Diploma Programme?
The Diploma Programme (DP) is a curriculum framework designed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students in the last two years of high school. The DP is internationally recognized as representing one of the highest standards in university preparatory education
DP students study six subjects (three at standard level and three at higher level) over two years and complete three additional requirements: Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the extended essay, and CAS (creativity, activity, and service) tasks outside of the classroom.
In addition to these requirements, students must earn a minimum of 24 points out of a possible 45 points on the final assessments which are externally marked and moderated by the IB, in order to receive an IB diploma. See FAQs about IB Diploma Programme
