Senior Pathway – The IB Diploma Programme

Year 10 students are about to begin the process of considering their pathway for senior study. As an IB World School, The Riverina Anglican College is proud to offer the IB Diploma Programme as an excellent option for those students looking to best prepare themselves for university.

So what is the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP)?

As an alternate to the HSC, the IBDP is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education that prepares students for success at university and life beyond. The programme is taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world's leading universities.

Approaches to teaching and learning in the IBDP are deliberate strategies that focus on what students learn and how they learn. As a result, IBDP students develop as young men and women who:

• have excellent breadth and depth of knowledge
• flourish physically, intellectually, emotionally and ethically
• think critically and consider perspectives
• value service and aim to become active citizens in a global society

More information on the IBDP and subjects offered will be made available in the coming weeks, as well as opportunities for students and parents to discuss the suitability of the IBDP.

Parents are invited to book time to discuss the IBDP and make informed subject selection decisions over the coming weeks.

Please contact me at Patricia.Humble@trac.nsw.edu.au to schedule an appointment.
