IB results at Royal Harbour Academy

The Royal Harbour Academy in Ramsgate has celebrated the achievements of its Sixth Form students in the International Baccalaureate Career-Related Programme.

With a rigorous curriculum including a Level 3 BTEC Diploma and two IB Diploma Programme courses, students demonstrated outstanding dedication and academic excellence.

In addition to their coursework, students successfully completed the IBCP core, which includes personal and professional skills development, a community-focused service learning project, and a reflective essay exploring an ethical dilemma. They also immersed themselves in an international culture through mandatory language acquisition.

Headteacher Simon Pullen said: “I am very  proud of the 6th Form students for the dedication and resilience they  have shown throughout their two-year journey.”
