1 year pre-IB
Pre-DP – lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
In Denmark, IB is offered as a three-year course. The first year is called “Pre- IB” and in the first part of the autumn term corresponds with the foundation programme for the Danish gymnasium, after which we continue with a subject programme that is designed to prepare students for beginning the IB Diploma proper. All teaching is conducted in English.
All students with a Danish Folkeskole background must take the Pre-IB year, whether coming direct from 9th class, 10th class or after an exchange year in an English speaking country.
The Pre-IB year is parallel to the first year of STX. Transfer is possible either way at the end of Pre-IB. C levels are awarded in the Danish system where indicated.
the two-year IB Diploma Programme
IB diploma – lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
The IB Diploma Programme is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepares students, normally aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. The programme is normally taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading universities.
The Diploma Programme is offered at nine schools in Denmark. These schools are geographically distributed around the regions of Denmark, so, wherever you are based, you shouldn’t be more than an hour away from an IB school.
Kolding Gymnasium has offered the IB-Diploma Programme since 2003.
To be admitted to the Diploma programme, you should have completed Pre DP IB, 1g of the Danish Gymnasium, or have an equivalent level of education, for example IGCSE’s or the IB MYP.
The IB Diploma programme is a balanced and intensive course of study. Students choose their subjects from 6 subject groups. A subject may be taken at Standard Level (recommended minimum 150 hours) or Higher Level (recommended minimum 240 hours). Students must have at least two languages (from groups 1 and 2), at least one subject from each of groups 3, 4 and 5, and the sixth subject can be Visual Arts or an additional subject from groups 1 to 4. Three subjects must be taken at Higher Level.

A NEW RHYTHM IN EVERYDAY SCHOOL LIFE
A NEW RHYTHM IN EVERYDAY SCHOOL LIFE
Since its establishment in 1542, Kolding Gymnasium has been a forward-thinking school that has consistently strived to evolve its teaching and learning practices. The new ‘4+1’ model offers you both a daily routine rooted in a strong and supportive community, as well as a more flexible, progressive and real-world education that empowers you to take ownership of your own learning.
There are many exciting activities at KG that bring together students from all three educations, and some which are special to IB. Participation is not only fun, but can often also count towards CAS activities.
There are a number of committees in the school, such as SVADA and Fredagscafé which organize parties for students. The annual Dorotheafest (DOT) is the biggest party of the year, to which students and parents are invited, and there is an Introfest in September for all first year students after the annual Sports Day – and of course Translokation at the end of the year to celebrate the graduation from KG. There are many opportunities to take part in sports activities throughout the year. You can have influence on school issues through the Student Council (Elevråd), and IB also has its own IB Student Council.
KG students run morning assemblies, and produce their own magazine “Spanskrøret”. It is always possible to start new initiatives. There are also activities for musicians, and the annual production provides many opportunities to become involved, whether as actors, musicians, singers, dancers or helping backstage.

What is IB?
IB – A global leader in international education

IB is an international pre-university education programme, which is highly respected by universities and employers throughout the world, and in Denmark IB is recognised as equivalent to the Danish Upper Secondary School Diploma (studentereksamen).
All IB schools have to meet rigorous educational standards, and are regularly evaluated in order to be officially approved as centres by the International Baccalaureate Organisation, which is based in The Hague. The teaching curriculum and subject syllabi are laid down internationally, and approved by governments world-wide to ensure the highest educational and academic standards are maintained. There is close co-operation between IB schools.
