Not really. Not at this stage. My DD is in Year 7 and her school held a meeting about the IB. I like the sound of it but I shall start to look more closely when she is in Year 10.

IB is highly regarded by Universities as well and has been going for 50 years. IGCSE and A Level is the usual route. I would be happy either way.

Whatever the school is doing now is likely to change in the next 8 years anyway!
