The International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme
We are proud at Leigh Academy Sixth Form to offer the full IBCP to all our students.
The IBCP is an internationally accredited programme for studying that challenges and develops all students from all backgrounds.
- It provides academic rigour through its Diploma Programme subjects (equivalent in value and standing to A-Levels)
- It provides real-world, industry experience through the Career-related studies such as BTECs
- It gives students holistic skill sets & competencies like no other course through the IBCP Core. This consists of:
- Language and Cultural Studies (non-examined)
- Reflective Project (worth up to 12 extra UCAS points)
- Personal and Professional Skills
- Community Engagement
Across the world, students who complete the IBCP are incredibly successful due to the high regard in which universities and employers hold it, along with its global profile and recognition.
We, at Leigh Academy Tonbridge, believe in and have seen the transformational power that the IBCP can have. We know that it can transform the lives of any student, giving them tickets to study and develop within our local context or anywhere else in the world. The IBCP is right for our students, right for our Academy and right for the time in which they live.
It is proven to increase social mobility, to enhance students as global citizens, not just as students, but investing in them as lifelong learners and committed, competent and resilient members of society.
Be part of the change; be part of this exciting new chapter at Leigh Academy Tonbridge in September 2025.
