Our curriculum

The IB Diploma Programme is a rigorous two-year curriculum that empowers students to think critically, act independently, and engage confidently with the world. Blending strong academics with global awareness and personal growth, it guides learners through six subjects and core components that spark curiosity, build confidence, and broaden their perspective.

Subject Groups

Students select one subject from each group:

  • Language and Literature: focuses on analytical writing, literary critique, and cultural perspectives, building advanced fluency in English, Polish and German
  • Language Acquisition: students develop practical communication skills in an additional language (Spanish or French) offered at beginner or advanced levels
  • Individuals and Societies: from global politics to psychology, students use research, data, and theory to understand complex systems and societies
  • Sciences: through biology, chemistry, physics, or environmental systems, students learn to hypothesize, test, and apply evidence-based thinking
  • Mathematics: students choose the mathematical approach that fits their interests - pure or applied - with strong links to data, logic, and problem-solving
  • The Arts: students create, perform, and critique in visual arts, music, or theatre, or may opt for an additional academic subject instead

Core elements

At our internatinal High School in Wrocław, students complete three core components designed to stretch their thinking, challenge assumptions, and build independence:

  • Theory of Knowledge (TOK): students explore how we know what we know across disciplines, cultures, and belief systems, developing deeper critical-thinking skills
  • Extended Essay (EE): students choose a topic of interest and write a 4,000-word independent research paper, an academic experience that mirrors university expectations
  • Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS): students design and lead their own initiatives, from creative projects to physical challenges and community service, building engagement, balance, and leadership
