WHAT THE DP OFFERS STUDENTS?

THE IBDP EDGE!

“ the dp organizes teaching and learning through six subject groups,

underpinned by the dp core.

● Students choose courses from the following subject groups: studies in language and literature; language acquisition; individuals and societies; sciences; mathematics; and the arts.

● Students may opt to study an additional sciences, individuals and societies, or languages course, instead of a course in the arts.

● Students will take some subjects at higher level (HL) and some at standard level (SL). HL and SL courses differ in scope but are measured according to the same grade descriptors, with students expected to demonstrate a greater body of knowledge, understanding and skills at higher level.

● Each student takes at least three (but not more than four) subjects at higher level, and the remaining at standard level.

● Standard level subjects take up 150 teaching hours. Higher level comprises 240 teaching hours.
