Welcome to St. Clare's: a very different Sixth
Form experience
Next Open Day 2006 |
Saturday 29 April 2006 |
10 am - 1 pm |
We'd be delighted to see you and your family, to show you the College
and to tell you something about the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
If you'd like to come and see the College at another time that suits
you, we're always very happy to make an appointment for you and your family
to visit.
Our recent open days have highlighted how many people were interested
in learning more about the International Baccalaureate Diploma. This is
not surprising, especially as the future of the UK examination system
is currently under discussion, and recent surveys of British universities
have shown how highly regarded applicants with IB are.
Chris Osbourn, Admissions Registrar at St. Clare's, was formerly an admissions
professional at two UK universities (Cambridge University and King's College,
London). Chris recalls how these universities welcomed IB student applications,
as the grading system and demands of IB demonstrated the candidate's abilities
and talents so well, and allowed real distinctions between candidates
to be made.
St. Clare's has offered IB longer than any other provider in England,
(and 41st in the world!) You'll find lots of background information in
our online IB guide, and can also contact
us if you have specific questions about how we teach IB, and why we believe
the IB Diploma to be such an important qualification. Please do contact
Chris - he will also be
able to tell you about our range of Scholarships
and Bursaries and the Application
Procedure.
