Why we champion the IB?
Whilst TGS recognises the academic rigour of the A level course, we have concluded from 6 years experience of teaching the diploma alongside A levels that the IB offers TGS students a range of additional advantages in entering today’s highly competitive Higher Education environment and work marketplace.
Students with the IB diploma gain the following advantages:
- A qualification with international currency and recognition
- An international outlook
- A positive attitude to independent learning
- Learning beyond traditional subjects
- Opportunities for in-depth enquiry
- Critical thinking skills
- Research-based learning skills
- University recognition of the level of challenge
