24.01.2022 The Academy is applying for its IB Diploma Programme license to be able to deliver the IB Diploma Programme to Dubbo students starting for our Year 11 cohort for 2023.

The IB scales to an excellent ATAR and makes for a seamless transition to university. An exciting development for the region! A literally world class education from right here in Dubbo!
