IB at MLC School 
Students undertaking the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme
in their final two years at school select one subject from each of six
core study areas, ensuring a breadth of subject choice through
humanities, experimental sciences, mathematics, arts and compulsory
language study. The IB Diploma also requires a CAS component (hours
dedicated to creativity, action and service), Theory of Knowledge
classes and an Extended (5,000 word) Essay in a subject area of the
student's choice.
Congratulations to the Class of 2022
