| Summary: | After initial research into the structure, advantages and disadvantages of the IB, Graham Aldridge has decided to introduce it in his school, Range High School in Formby near Liverpool. The broad range of subjects, emphasis on independent working, and the importance placed on extra-curricular activities have convinced him that it would be the right move. Graham returns to Broadgreen High School in Liverpool where the IB programme has been running for 15 years. Headteacher Ian Andain explains the considerations when introducing the IB programme into a school. One concern is what the Range High pupils will think of the new qualification, so Graham takes a group from Year 10 along to meet Broadgreen's IB students. He also visits Liverpool University to find out how universities view the IB and to meet a former IB student, to find out how well the diploma equipped him for university life. Finally, he goes back to Harrogate Grammar School to find out more about the implementation process. |
