The Diploma Program, or DP, is built upon a philosophy of  International Mindedness and an interdisciplinary college level course work.  The center of it all is the IB Mission in Action: the IB Learner Profile. That is surrounded by Approaches to Teaching and Learning.  The "core" of the IB DP contains: Theory of Knowledge, Extended Essay, and CAS (Creativity - Activity - Service). All diploma candidates will complete these requirements over the course of their junior and senior years.

A student centered Approaches to Teaching and Approaches to Learning allow students to engage in complex interdisciplinary issues and become critically thinking lifelong learners. 

The heart of all of the IB programmes and communities is The IB Learner Profile. This serves as the mission statement of the program in action. The IB Learner Profile consists of 10 attributes that IB learners and members of the IB community strive to become. Indeed, they imply a commitment to help all members of the school community learn to respect themselves, others and the world around them.
