slizzie Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 We are in our first year, we started off with a nice even number of 10, but we have 8 now, or nine. One boy the rest girls as it is technically a girls school. In a year of about 120 people only a few are IBers. Most take A levels and some do vocational diplomas and the like.

sweetnsimple786 Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 how do you have a guy at an all girl's school? is it an exception for the IB program? ... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slizzie Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Nope, but there are very few guys in our year, there's about six. In sixth form (last two years of high school) guys can apply to come to our school for all there lessons, though hardly any do. I think preference does go to girls because it is still a girls school. We have more boys who have one of their lessons here, but only a handful have all of their lessons here. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyrenazbib Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 My school is small to start with, and so far no one had dropped out and its too late to anyway...Pretty much everyone is doing A Levels :/ After having started IB, i wish i did take A Levels, but i was bullied into IB by my school and parents because -its been said to be a zillion times- universities prefer IB students.hmm. I wish we had bigger classes though, there isnt much variety when it comes to making friends :/ Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eydie Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 There's about 25 in my year. About 2 drop out each year.About half of the really smart people are in IB, another half chose to do the state certificate for different reasons: easier, already doing higher year subjects, want a perfect state percentage etc. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MybelovedTFB Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 1 class of Pdp's, 1 class of IB1s and 2 of IB2s (they had to reduce the number of students for economical reasons i suppose, or lack of interest) = about 30 pdps, 30 IB1s and we are about 56 IB2's its not an all IB school. do they exist?

Ejoriah Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 My school markets itself as an IB school - some students come in just for IB from other schools. We have been the only IB school in the country for years, with only recently another school opening. We don't have an alternative to IB - if we're there, we're doing it, either as diploma, certificate (minority) or IBCC (about 3 in my year). There was about 80 of us taking the exam I think.

Feist Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 We have 8 doing the full diploma in our school, which is the biggest it has been in a long time. A couple of the smartest people in my grade are only doing certificates, and one dropped entirely to contribute their time to an extra-curricular so the ones who are hanging in there feel pretty special.

ameatypie Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 At my school in NZ of a little under 1100 students, there are around 45 students in Cohort #1 (our school only started to offer IB last year!), and then an additional 32 or so in Cohort #2 (the one I am in). In our school, IB is supposed to be for Average-Above Average people, but we have to be really motivated pretty much all the time. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
