What changes in Grade 11

A heavy and varied workload

Six subjects plus Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay and CAS make time management one of the biggest challenges of the first year.

Internal Assessments begin

Many subjects include coursework that counts towards the final grade. Starting well makes the second year far more manageable.

Choosing Higher and Standard Level

Understanding how Higher Level and Standard Level courses differ helps students make the most of their subject combination.

Exam Boards / Frameworks We Cover

Full alignment with the IB Diploma Programme and its assessment structure

IB Diploma Programme (IBDP)

We teach to the official IBDP subject guides and assessment criteria across all HL and SL subjects we offer.

May & November Examination Sessions

We prepare students for both exam sessions — so whether your child sits in May or November, our programme is aligned.

Internal Assessments (IA)

IA support is core to what we do. We cover criteria, word counts, and submission deadlines for every subject we teach.

Extended Essay (EE)

Structured EE mentoring from topic selection to final draft across multiple subject areas, so students meet IB academic writing standards.

Theory of Knowledge (TOK)

TOK essay and presentation coaching so students can articulate knowledge claims and counterclaims with clarity and structure.

How we prepare your Grade 11 child

We don't leave IB results to chance. Every session targets the criteria that earn marks — from IAs and the Extended Essay to TOK and final exams. Here's how we do it.

Internal Assessment Support

We guide students through every stage of their IAs — from research question to final draft — ensuring they meet all IB criteria and word count requirements.

Extended Essay Mentoring

Our tutors support students in selecting a focused EE topic, structuring their argument, and meeting the IB's academic writing standards.

Past Paper & Mark Scheme Mastery

We drill students on past papers using real IB mark schemes so they know exactly what earns marks at HL and SL.

TOK Essay & Presentation Coaching

We help students understand and apply the TOK framework to produce coherent, well-structured TOK essays and presentations.

Signs your Grade 11 child could use extra support

  • They are struggling to balance subjects with TOK, the Extended Essay and CAS
  • They find the pace and depth of Higher Level content demanding
  • Internal Assessment deadlines are causing stress
  • They understand lessons but find it hard to answer exam-style questions
