The Curriculum
Diploma candidates select one subject
from each of the six groups and at
least three are taken at the Higher
Level (HL) = 240 hours; three at the
Standard Level (SL) = 150 hours. By
arranging work in this fashion, students
are able to explore some subjects in
depth and some more broadly over the
two-year period.
