What do you have to do to achieve it?

Included overleaf are the criteria for each of three elements of the Tripos. To obtain the award in Year 13 you must have successfully met the criteria of each of the three elements.

The Tripos criteria should be viewed as enabling and not restrictive. The criteria outlined is the minimum expected requirement to meet the necessary standard of the award and you are encouraged to go beyond them. Ultimately, what you gain from the Tripos experience will be reflected by the amount of time and effort you put in.

To help chart the progress of your Tripos journey we ask that you complete reflections at three points in the process – at the start, midway and afterwards. The Tripos is designed to help develop traits which we feel are important and are a continuation of the six Royal High School Learner Qualities cultivated in the Senior School. We want to see evidence that you have reflected on your Tripos choices and experiences and that you have embodied these Learner Qualities. The process of reflection is similar to the Duke of Edinburgh Log and the CAS system of the International Baccalaureate and is completed through forms on Firefly.
