IB Diploma Programme Evening

Thinking about SJS for Grade 10 or 11 in 2027? We invite students currently in Grade 9 and 10 and their families to join us—and current SJS parents—for a special evening exploring the IB Diploma Programme.

This session will provide an overview of what to expect in the IB Diploma Programme, including:

  • The DP Core: An introduction to Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay (EE), and Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)—key components that distinguish the IB Diploma and give excellent preparation for university.
  • Subject Selection and Course Pathways: Learn about the six subject groups, Higher Level (HL) and Standard Level (SL) courses, and how course choices can align with your interests and future university plans.
  • Student Well-Being and Academic Support: An honest look at academics, balance and the support available at SJS to ensure students thrive.

This session is an opportunity to learn more about the academic program, student experience and path to graduation at SJS. 

Registration is required for the event on Wednesday, November 18, starting at 6:00 and finishing at approximately 7:30 PM. Please register online.

Virtual Q&A with SJS

Learn more about SJS through a virtual Q&A. These informal sessions are designed to give prospective families the opportunity to ask questions, connect with school leaders, and learn more about the SJS community in a relaxed, conversational setting.

Our School Principals will answer questions about the student experience, the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme, and life at SJS. The Admissions Team will also provide a brief overview of the application process and next steps.

We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to engage directly with our principals and learn more about what makes SJS a truly exceptional place for learning.
