The BST Diploma

BST students at computing science class

Grounded in a vision to nurture each student’s unique potential, passion, and purpose, the BST Diploma provides an inclusive, holistic, and flexible pathway that reflects individual strengths and aspirations while upholding rigorous academic standards.

The BST WASC-accredited high school diploma is completed across Years 10–13. A defining feature of the BST Diploma is its adaptability: The programme is structured to accommodate distinct student profiles, enabling a curriculum that can comprise solely externally assessed academic courses, or a blend of both externally and internally assessed options. The programme serves as a wrapper qualification, integrating a personalised mix of (I)GCSEs, individual IB Diploma Course Certificates, BTEC qualifications, internal BST courses and specialised BST elective modules. To graduate, students accumulate a minimum of 24 credits across core subject areas: including English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities, Languages, and The Arts.

Because the diploma holds full WASC accreditation and is backed by the school's other rigorous and recognised accreditations such as Council of British International Schools (COBIS) and Council of International Schools (CIS), it carries global equity. Graduates can confidently pursue higher education opportunities worldwide, with the diploma widely recognised and accepted by universities across the world.

Whether a student is pursuing a fully academic track of IB courses or a hybrid blend, the BST Diploma ensures that every learner graduates with a respected, globally recognised passport to future success.
