Diploma (DP) Programme

OUR COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS EXPERIENCE

The Complexities of Navigating Life in the 21st Century

At UISG, we believe the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP) should be accessible to any motivated student. At UISG, we firmly believe that every motivated student should have access to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP). Our vibrant and diverse student community is a testament to the accessibility and attainability of the program. Here, students embrace challenges while staying true to themselves.
The DP at UISG is designed to equip students with the academic skills needed for university study, further education, and their chosen profession. But more importantly, we aim to develop good people who can make a difference globally. From inside the classroom to international trips and online to on stage, students are encouraged to develop these traits through the IB Learner Profile. Our community of learners experiences the complexities of navigating life in the 21st century and, in the process, establishes the values and skills needed to live a fulfilled and purposeful life.
“Our students are prepared to be life-long learners and make an impact on the future.”

Kyle Gray

DP Coordinator

The Principles

The Principles

The IB Diploma Programme (DP) is an academically challenging programme that prepares students for success at university and in life beyond. The DP encourages breadth and depth of study by requiring students to study six academic subject areas and to complete an Extended Essay of 4,000 words in one of those areas. Students also study Theory of Knowledge (TOK). Through TOK, students are pushed to think about how they “know what they know”. TOK also helps students to make connections between their different subject areas. The DP reinforces students’ critical thinking skills as they learn to evaluate and analyse issues, generate ideas, and consider new perspectives. It also provides opportunities for students to develop their time-management skills and to become confident, independent learners. A core component of Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS) allows students to extend their learning beyond the classroom as they take personal action and contribute positively to their communities. The IBDP holds international recognition and is acknowledged by universities and employers worldwide. This global qualification offers enhanced academic opportunities at prestigious higher education institutions.

The Programme Components

The Programme Components

The Diploma Programme has six subject groups, with various courses within each group. Students choose one course from each subject group. Students will study three courses at the Higher Level (HL) and three at the Standard Level (SL). HL courses have a more significant time allowance and are studied in greater breadth and depth than SL courses. Similar skills are developed at both levels, especially critical thinking and analysis. All Diploma Programme students also participate in the three core requirements: Theory of Knowledge (TOK), Creativity, Activity and Service (CAS), and the Extended Essay (EE). These Core Requirements embody the principles that lie at the heart of the thinking behind the Diploma Programme.
