The latest University Admissions Officers Report, commissioned by ACS Schools, has concluded that the IB is the best preparation for university and the workplace. The report concluded that nearly a fifth (18%) of university admissions officers cite the IB as a better preparation to thrive at university, compared to just eight % who cite A levels, and three % who cite Scottish Highers.
Skills best provided by the IB Diploma include workplace skills, cited by 57% of officers, self-management skills, 76%, and ability to cope with pressure, 72%, and an entrepreneurial or positive approach to risk taking, 23%.
