The IB Diploma in BCG

More than 5,000 schools so far have chosen to teach International Baccalaureate programmes, with their unique academic rigour and their emphasis on students’ personal development. Our school is already part of this amazing global network and is benefitting from the standards and practices the IB insist on.

The British College of Gava became an IB World School and teach the prestigious Diploma Programme from September 2021 in our growing sixth form.

The prestigious Diploma Programme (DP) curriculum is made up of six subject groups and the unique DP core, comprising theory of knowledge (TOK), creativity, activity, service (CAS) and the extended essay. Through the Diploma Programme (DP) core, students reflect on the nature of knowledge, complete independent research and undertake a project that often involves community service. Students choose courses from the following subject groups: studies in language and literature; language acquisition; individuals and societies (humanities); 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 three subjects at higher level (HL) and three 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.

The International Baccalaureate, and the Diploma Programme (DP) in particular, enjoys a high level of respect and recognition among the world’s higher education institutions. For students, success in the IB often results in advanced standing, course credit, scholarships, and other admissions related benefits at many universities. The IB Diploma is now recognised for direct entry in Spanish universities also.
