Students achieving 20 or fewer points at the end of grade 11 will be given the option of:

1. Transitioning to the High School Diploma with IB courses in their strongest subjects.

2. Repeating grade 11, if the Core components of Creativity Activity Service (CAS), the Extended Essay (EE) and Theory of Knowledge (TOK) are meeting the school’s expectations.

   1. • However, if a student has below 85% attendance and or greater than 20% late marks, they will not be given this opportunity.

3. Finding an alternative educational pathway away from ISHR.

Students achieving 21 plus points will transition into grade 12 when the following criteria are met:

• CAS requirements are meeting ISHR’s expectations 

• TOK exhibition is completed with a passing grade.

• An extended essay draft of 3500 words (with citations) has been submitted.

• A grade of at least a 2 has been awarded in all subjects.

• The candidate has at least 10 points awarded collectively in their HL subjects. (For candidates who register for four HL subjects, the three highest grades count).

• Candidates have at least 9 points on SL subjects.

• ISHR will reserve the right to prevent graduation from grade 11 if there are attendance/punctuality concerns which leads us to believe that a student will not meet the High School Diploma attendance expectations.

• If the IB DP program is causing severe social-emotional problems that require external intervention from medical services ISHR in exceptional circumstances ISHR will recommend a sabbatical to prioritise student well-being.

If the above criteria are not met, the above three options will be given.

All students will be viewed holistically and where there is evidence to suggest academic performance is being hindered by external factors these will be taken into consideration before a final decision is made about graduation from Grade 11.
