What makes DCI a leader in IB performance? Here are seven key factors that contribute to our ongoing success:
 

1. Whole-School Commitment to Wellbeing 

From the beginning of the IB journey to the very end, student wellbeing is prioritised through a comprehensive whole-school culture, integrating robust wellbeing programs to address academic and personal challenges, fostering holistic development from early years to the IBDP, and ensuring ongoing support and monitoring by dedicated staff members.

 

2. Experienced IBDP Teachers and Examiners

Our IB teaching staff, among the most experienced in the world, are fully trained in their subjects, often publishing textbooks and serving as IB examiners and workshop facilitators, ensuring exceptional support for students both in and out of class, adherence to IB standards, and providing ongoing professional development.

 

3. Extensive Range of IBDP Subjects and Unparalleled Core Support

Students have the flexibility to tailor their learning experience to their interests, benefiting from small, supportive classes and dedicated, knowledgeable teachers. With specialised coordinators for each IB section and robust support for the Extended Essay, Creativity Activity Service (CAS), and Theory of Knowledge (ToK), students are equipped with the skills and mindset needed for success in university and beyond.

 

4. Personalised Support and Guidance from University Counseling Team

Our counsellors are experts in global education, with unparalleled understanding of the student journey through secondary school, higher education, and careers. They also have proven track experience and strong ties with some of the world's leading educational institutions, which has led to our students matriculating at some of the top universities globally.

 

5. Strong Student Agency and Peer Support

Our focus on holistic personal development within the IB programme emphasises Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills, fostering self-directed learners and critical thinkers, while empowering students through peer support and active engagement in wellbeing initiatives, leadership opportunities, and collaborative projects.

 

6. World-Class Facilities and Resources

We boast world-class facilities that foster academic excellence, social well-being, and holistic development, offering state-of-the-art STEAM labs, dedicated study spaces, sports facilities, and collaborative environments. These offer students inspiration from their surroundings, both on and off campus, within a global network that enriches their overall learning experience.

 

7. Support for New Joiners - Both Socially and Academically

New joiners transitioning into the IB programme receive comprehensive support, including peer mentorship, orientation sessions, academic tutoring, and a vibrant community atmosphere, ensuring a positive and enriching experience as they acclimate to their academic and social surroundings.
