At St. George’s College, we offer Upper School students the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme and Career-related Programme, which comprise a demanding and stimulating pre-university curriculum lasting two years. This program is intended for all students in grades 10 and 11 and requires a high level of motivation. The program culminates in international examinations taken from the end of October to mid-November of the second year, and successful completion grants a qualification recognised by prestigious universities both domestically and internationally.
Grade 9 students, while completing the IMYC Programme, receive workshops and informational sessions about the IB Programmes and the variety of courses they can choose from. At the end of the year, they must present a Final Project, the Pre-Extended Essay, which is calibrated to their level of achievement and consists of a 2500-word research essay on a proposed topic. This project shares the characteristics of the IB Extended Essay and helps students further develop the learning skills required by the IB, which include self-management, communication, social skills, research, and thinking.
Our proposal, based on an internationally-minded education, ensures that our students are educated to be tolerant, proactive citizens who are sensitive to their environment and the community around them.
The IB Diploma Programme prepares students for university and encourages them to:
Les doy la bienvenida a la última etapa de la vida escolar de nuestros estudiantes: Upper School, la cual ofrece una educación más avanzada y compleja en todas las materias, que es aprovechada por nuestros estudiantes de grado 9 a 11.
Esta formación les permite prepararse para la universidad y la vida no sólo cursando una variedad de materias y actividades extracurriculares que enriquecen su experiencia educativa, sino también ampliando su horizonte cultural a través de experiencias internacionales gracias a los intercambios y programas tipo taller como los de Round Square, ISCA, Coded, Claremont, LAHC, MUN y otros torneos de debates fuera del país, que han permitido que cada año se vaya incrementando el número de alumnos que participan en estas actividades
Furthermore, the fact that all our students follow the programs offered by the IB for certification has led to a growing number of candidates and diplomas obtained.
We are confident that the time spent in Upper School will be a period of learning, significant skill development, and personal growth for our students.
