In order to help students with their course selections for the IB Diploma Programme we will hold information sessions for grade 10 students during period 6 on the following dates:
Wednesday, 25 January
Group 1 - English Literature, Japanese Language and Literature & School Supported Self-taught Literature
Group 2 - French B, Japanese B, Spanish B
Wednesday, 1 February
Group 3 - Economics, Geography, History, Psychology
Group 4 - Biology, Chemistry, ESS, Physics & Computer Science
Wednesday, 8 February
Group 5 - Mathematics
Group 6 - Visual Arts, Music
In November and December parent workshops were held on the DP course selection process and ‘the Core’ component of the diploma programme. Details of these sessions, in addition to the Seisen DP handbook can be found on the parent portal. The DP handbook gives a detailed overview of the programme and links for information that may be of further interest such as FAQ's. During the pandemic we were prevented from gathering large groups of students together so held a virtual DP course selection fair. The videos produced can be found here and are a description of each DP course. It would be beneficial for students to watch these video prior to the information session so they can generate some questions.
Finally all grade 10 students will be meeting with Ms Lui our College Advisor prior to making their final selections. If you have any specific questions for her regarding entrance requirements for university programs her email address is: alui@seisen.com.
