Greensprings IB Diploma Experience
What is IB Diploma?
The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.
To this end the organisation works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment.
These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
The IB Diploma Programme is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepare students, normally aged 16 – 19, for success at university and life beyond
Students are required to pick 6 (six) subjects, three at higher level and three at standard level. They are to choose one subject from each group and a second subject from groups 1 to 5 instead of a group 6 subject.
Over the course of the two-year programme, students study six subjects chosen from the six subject groups. They complete an extended essay, follow a theory of knowledge (TOK) course, and participate in creativity, activity, service (CAS).

Akintelure Folake
I recently completed my degree in Biomedical Science with a first class, and as I must say no better foundation and preparation for a rigorous three-year degree than what I received from the IB Diploma Programme at Greensprings School.
The programme prepared me for the academical life in the university, as the course work, essay writing, workload, and teaching style of the IB Diploma are similar to that of the university.
The diploma also made me a better team player and increased my ability to work under pressure and manage my time effectively. Furthermore, I am now self-motivated, and all the skills I picked up during the programme greatly helped me go through the challenging times in the university.
In retrospect, the Greensprings IB Diploma gave me the platform to realise my potential and enabled me to correlate experiences in the classroom to real-life situations.
