Thanks all for the replies! For those who start in Y10 - how does it work? How many hrs per week per subject? Is it easy to get through the content in 2 years?

Thanks for all the replies!!! If you said 3.5hrs or more can you break it down. How many specific hrs per subject per week (not sci total).

My niece is stuck in the Caribbean with no luggage after it being lost by @Condor and no communication from them after she has reported it. Close to Christmas ruining her holiday. Let us know where the bag is @condor.

I’m new to IB Chem and want to do a brief lesson on where to start with your IA. Does anyone have a ppt I could use or some resources? I would be forever grateful! #chatchemistry

Teachers, whoever needs to hear this, it’s ok to have an off day. It’s ok to plan a lesson which requires minimal input from you. Ss can learn independently with the correct plan/resources. Don’t beat yourself up because your lessons don’t appear to be all singing all dancing!

I’ve been quiet on Twitter as I have moved to Brasil and things have been hectic. Shout out to all the teachers who have moved abroad this week. I already feel like I’ve grown as a person. How are other people getting on at international schools? #internationalschool
