IB program
The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum, primarily aimed at students aged 16 to 19. It leads to a qualification that is widely recognized by the world’s leading universities. However, severe work is required to retain an acceptable grade, thus leading to a high drop rate among students. These students opt to take only certain IB "certificates" or to drop the program in general. One of the criticisms of the school's IB program is the lack of choice available to students in choosing courses and the relative ease in which a student may drop out of the program.
