It is one of the most relevant and empowering courses a young person can take, developing the kind of clear, honest, independent thinking that serves them long after the IB is over.

It is a systematic and comprehensive way of working through the course, ensuring that students develop a thorough understanding of each component and the connections between them.

Rather than working through the course topic by topic, we organise it around five fundamental questions about the nature of knowledge, each one building on the last.

Together they take students on a journey from the foundations of what knowledge actually is, through to the values, perspectives, and processes that shape how we produce and use it.
