1 - 5 EIB Final Examination Session

Good Luck !!! Deadlines are set up to help students manage the workload of IB. All of these deadlines are official school deadlines and MUST be kept. Students who do not submit work on

time risk not being given internal assessment and this can result in failing conditions. When handing in final written assignments and portfolios (except Science Portfolios) you MUST have a digital copy (make back-ups), hand in an original version plus one copy. All papers must be formatted according to IB standards (See the IB Student Orientation Booklet). July 11, 2014
