🧑‍🎓 IB DP Geographers

Have you heard about the review of the 16+ programmes? I hadn’t until the recent 🔗 SGIS IB DP Geography Group meeting. There has been a recent update made on the process and progress, which is worth checking out if you are involved in the world of IB teaching. The document you are looking for is called ‘Review of 16+ programmes: June 2023 update’, and it can be found on the Programme Resource Centre. You will be glad to read that one of the goals is ‘Designing for subtraction and for more manageable programmes.’

I have recently spent quite a few hours invigilating exams. This year we started using 🔗 examdisplay.com. At GBP 25 for a yearly subscription, it is some of the best money I have spent (on the IT budget) this year. If you work in a secondary school show 🔗 examdisplay.com to your exams officer now!
