IB Diploma Programme Fair
It’s the time of the year when our Grade 10 students start navigating through the complexities of choosing their DP subjects. How many subjects should I choose? What is DP History like? Is Environmental systems and societies a science course or an I&S course? Do I need higher level mathematics if I want to study finance in university? All of these questions, and plenty more, were answered during our third annual DP Fair that took place in October 8th, 2025.
The fair is an excellent opportunity for our upcoming Diploma students and their parents to ask questions and get to know our experienced DP teachers. We also have current DP students present at the subject tables as student ambassadors to share their experiences. As the subject selection is tightly dependent on students’ college aspirations, many parents and Grade 10 students benefit from discussions with our knowledgeable college counselors, Mr. Tony and Ms. Johanna, who help guide our students towards strong college applications.
Although questions related to pathways, pre-requisites and subject combinations might have gotten answered, the DP Fair tends to spark new questions. Luckily, it’s just the start of a yearlong process of selecting DP subjects. Our Grade 10 students still have ample time to find the subject combination that is the best fit for them.
A big thank you to all Grade 10 students and their parents for participating. Thank you also to our college counselors, DP teachers, student ambassadors and everybody who helped make the DP fair a very successful event.
Sincerely, Mr. Markus DP Coordinator
