The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP) is a comprehensive two-year curriculum that aims to develop students who have exceptional breadth and depth of knowledge. Students study six different subject groups, along with the core components of theory of knowledge (TOK), creativity, activity, service (CAS), and the extended essay (EE). The core elements allow students to reflect on the nature of knowledge, learn about their part in our global village, and complete independent research.
The DP is an exceptional pathway to university; graduates have a greater opportunity to be accepted at their university and program of choice. Students are better prepared for the rigours of university study due to their development of refined time management and organizational skills. Typically, IB graduates achieve a significantly higher academic average than their counterparts and maintain their awards and scholarships more consistently. See www.ibo.org for more information.
The bridging program to the DP is the Enhanced Learning (EL) program. Students in grade nine and ten study their academic courses at the Enhanced level, learning content and skills, which extend or enhance the curriculum. Application is available at https://korahcvs.adsb.on.ca/.
