Dear Parents,

Welcome to the IB Diploma Program (DP) at Australian School of Abu Dhabi. The DP is a rigorous two-year program designed to prepare students in Years 11 and 12 for both the IB Diploma and future academic and professional success.

In this program, students engage in a well-rounded curriculum that fosters critical thinking, research skills, and intellectual curiosity, equipping them with the knowledge and competencies needed for higher education and beyond. Our DP students are empowered to apply their learning to real-world situations, developing as independent, lifelong learners.

At Australian School of Abu Dhabi, we nurture students to become responsible global citizens who are compassionate, open-minded, and effective communicators. The IB Learner Profile is at the heart of our program, ensuring that students grow into balanced, reflective, and principled individuals ready to take on future challenges.

We strongly believe that student success is enhanced through strong collaboration between parents and the school. Your involvement, encouragement, and guidance play a vital role in supporting our learners throughout their DP journey. Together, we can inspire and empower our students to reach their full potential.

We look forward to working with you and supporting your child’s path toward success.
