Frequently Asked Questions
IBDP Language and Literature is one of the English courses offered in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. It focuses on developing students' critical analysis skills through the study of both literary and non-literary texts, including novels, poetry, drama, essays, and various media texts.
Because fixed literary texts differ between schools, we are unable to offer mixed classes at the Year 5 and Year 6 levels. However, for lower levels (Years 1-4), we can accommodate students from other IB schools as there are fewer set texts to cover. Feel free to WhatsApp or email us to discuss your specific needs.
Our IO preparation includes teaching essential tips and techniques for successful oral presentations. We provide guidance on connecting texts with global issues, and oral practice with personalised feedback to help students build confidence and refine their presentation and response skills.
