IB
At MYP, the Personal Project in Year 11 is externally moderated by the IB. Our DP students take the final DP examinations at the end of Year 13.
We have yet to have a full cohort through for the Cambridge IGCSE exams, though our one student who took them last year scored two A grades and two B grades. For the DP: 2019/20 33.0 points.

The designated teacher offers one to one or small group support, and undertakes initial diagnostic testing to help identify the need – or otherwise – for further external intervention. This external help has taken the form of staff from ELG coming in to work with individual students; this varies according to the needs, and may be an Ed. Psych, a Behavioural Therapist, or Occupational Therapist. Our teacher advises homeroom or subject teachers on classroom strategies suited to the particular needs of each child. She also maintains close contact with parents on these matters.
We have a member of staff who has the title of Learning Support / Inclusion Teacher, and he works with a small number of students, across all three IB programmes, but mainly in PYP. We also bring in external assistance and support, with the agreement of parents, who pay extra for this.
