Empowering IBCP2 Students for Professional Success
We are delighted to share an inspiring update from our Personal and Professional Skills (PPS) course involving our IBCP Year 13 students.
Recently, our students had the invaluable opportunity to participate in one-on-one interviews with Ms. Munnira Sheikh, the CEO and founder of ZEN. Ms. Sheikh conducted insightful interviews and shared expert tips with our final-year students, focusing on crafting professional CVs and preparing for their future careers.
Highlights of the experience include:
- Personalized Coaching: Ms. Sheikh provided tailored feedback to each student, helping them enhance their communication and presentation skills.
- Professional Insights: Students gained practical advice on navigating the professional world and making a strong impression in their chosen fields.
- Showcasing Excellence: All our candidates showcased remarkable determination, knowledge, and passion for their future endeavors.
This initiative aligns perfectly with our mission to inspire, empower, and transform learners into confident, capable individuals ready to tackle future challenges. Their engagement in these sessions reflects their readiness to take on new challenges and succeed beyond ARIS.
A special thank you to Ms. Munnira Sheikh for her time and dedication in supporting our students’ development. Her mentorship has made a significant impact on their professional journeys.
Stay tuned for more updates on our students’ achievements!

Reflective Project Deadlines
Our IBCP2 students have completed the first draft of their Reflective Projects. Before the end of the semester, students will receive detailed feedback from their supervisors, providing them with valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. This feedback will guide them as they work towards their final submission.
Over the December break, all CP2 students are expected to dedicate time to refining and completing their final drafts. This focused effort will ensure they are ready to submit their Reflective Projects when classes resume in January.
Individual Oral (IO) for Language and Literature
The final Individual Oral (IO) for Year 13 Language and Literature students is scheduled for Saturday, December 14, 2024. This arrangement ensures a quiet and distraction-free environment for all recordings.
