The IB Diploma Programme is an academically challenging and balanced two-year programme with final examinations that prepare students exceptionally well for success at university and life beyond. The programme is held in high regard by the world’s leading universities.
Through the subject groupings and the Core elements, the Diploma Programme develops students physically, intellectually, emotionally and ethically. Strong connections are made across the disciplines, supported by additional requirements in the areas of community service (CAS), recognition of higher-order learning (TOK) and the production of an extensive mini-thesis (EE) in a chosen subject.
Uplands students have achieved great success in comparison to world average scores in each year of the programme, since its inception in 2001.

The following students are recognised for their high achievement in the Diploma Programme for the 2018-19 academic year.

While academically non-selective, Uplands has consistently achieved a very high percentage of its overall IGCSE examination results at or above a B-grade. The last seven years has seen Uplands achieve its best results in its 60-years of operation, with a 7-year average of 72% of all grades being of B-grade or above. For the academic year 2018-2019, we have had our best results ever with A*-B grades at 80.6%. In addition, our IGCSE/GCSE students consistently receive the Cambridge International “Outstanding Learner” Awards.
