The programme is normally taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world's leading universities.

- Extended Essay
- The extended essay is an independent, self-directed piece of research, culminating in a 4,000-word paper.
- Theory of Knowledge - TOK
- It is a stated aim of TOK that students should become aware of the interpretative nature of knowledge, including personal ideological biases, regardless of whether, ultimately, these biases are retained, revised or rejected.
- CAS - Creativity~Action~Service
- The CAS requirement is a fundamental part of the programme and takes seriously the importance of life outside the world of scholarship, providing a refreshing counterbalance to academic studies.
