Two Saskatoon high schools offer the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme: Aden Bowman Collegiate on the east side and Bedford Road Collegiate on the west side, both part of Saskatoon Public Schools. This guide explains how the program works and shows homes for sale in the neighbourhoods near each school.
The IB Diploma Programme runs in Grades 11 and 12 for students who are academically motivated and want a challenge. Both schools offer pre-IB programming in Grades 9 and 10 to prepare students, and there are course prerequisites to enter the diploma program. Students who complete the IB diploma also earn a Saskatchewan high school diploma. Students are assessed by both classroom teachers and outside examiners over the two years.
