IB Bespoke Course

Our IB Bespoke Course is ideal for students who want more flexibility in their subject choices. Bespoke students choose five or six subjects from any of the IB subject groups in order to create their own specially-tailored programme.  

Bespoke students are recommended to study three IB subjects at higher level and two at standard level. Universities often make offers to Bespoke students based on their predicted grades in their three higher-level subjects e.g. 6, 6, 6 or 6, 6, 5. 

It is not necessary for Bespoke students to study the DP core (TOK, Extended Essay, CAS), although they can if they choose to. Students can choose any combination of five or six subjects from any of the IB subject groups (timetable permitting).

Studying a Bespoke curriculum will give you lots of scope to gain UCAS points. Each higher-level subject is worth up to 56 UCAS points and each standard level subject is worth up to 28 points. Therefore a Bespoke student studying five IB subjects with three at higher level and two at standard level can achieve up to 224 UCAS points (the equivalent of 4 A*s at A-level).

In recent years, our Bespoke students have gone on to top destinations such as King's College London and the University of Bath.
