Overview
The IB Diploma Programme (DP) Core is central to every student’s IB experience. These elements broaden learning, encourage independent inquiry and connect knowledge across subject groups. By taking Core courses online with Pamoja, students gain the flexibility to explore their interests in greater depth while building essential skills for success at university and beyond.
The Core helps students to:
- apply knowledge and skills across a range of contexts
- think critically and reflect on different perspectives
- develop independence, resilience and intellectual curiosity
- prepare for further study and a wide variety of careers
All Pamoja courses are studied within a student’s current school through our flexible yet structured online learning model, guided by experienced IB teachers and supported by dedicated pastoral care.
