IB Diploma Programme The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme, often colloquially referred to simply as "IB"While this term has a widespread use in this context, it is not correct usage, as there are two other International Baccalaureate programmes besides the Diploma Programme., is an educational programme taught in one of three languages (English, French or Spanish) and is intended for students in their final two years of secondary school, often before entering university.
IB Group 1 subjects The Group One of IB Diploma Programme subjects, subtitled language A1, refers to the native language or otherwise best language of the student - thus, language A1. The course focuses on literary analysis of works of literature produced in that language.
IB Group 2 subjects The Group Two of IB Diploma Programme subjects, subtitled second language, refers to the one or more foreign languages that each Diploma candidate is required to study. The second language can be studied at one of five levels (in order of decreasing difficulty): A2 higher level, A2 standard level, B higher level, B standard level, or ab initio standard level.
