Mathematics is a compulsory part of the IB Diploma Programme. There are two different courses available: Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches and Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation. Each course can be studied at Standard Level, but we only offer the Analysis and Approaches course at Higher level. You should choose the level that best suits your ability. Mathematics is an international language. For many, Mathematics is the tool for use in other areas of study, while some see the subject as an adventure in reasoning and proof, with its own special aesthetics. Whatever your perception, it is undoubtedly the foundation for advancement in the real world, for example in engineering, finance and commerce, science and technology, to name but a few. Everyone is touched by the subject, from counting your change when shopping to understanding the world of finance, from measuring up for your new garden fence to calculating the interest payable on your mortgage: Mathematics is everywhere. The importance of Mathematics in the world and the prevalence of the subject in your daily life provides a clear structure and sufficient rationale for making the study of this subject compulsory within the IB diploma.
All candidates are expected to achieve a minimum of 32 points across their best six subjects at GCSE (or equivalent), plus a grade 6 in subjects they wish to study at A Level or Higher Level in the IB Diploma.
Each HL course is assessed by three externally assessed papers and the internal assessment. Each SL course is assessed by two externally assessed papers and the internal assessment. The internal assessment is based on a current Mathematical exploration. This is a piece of written work that involves investigating an area of Mathematics.
