Frequently asked questions about SSST
As a school how do I register my student(s)?
To enrol your students, please get in touch with us using our contact form.
Will additional resources need to be purchased by the school/student?
For SSST Literature A, students are required to read a selection of texts. The choice of texts should be a collaboration between the student and the Teacher, who will ensure that the selection meets IB criteria and is suitable. The text list must also be discussed with the school. While many resources are available as Open Source online books and texts, there might be cases where purchases are necessary, and the responsibility for these purchases lies with either the student or the school.
