IB Philosophy centres on philosophical inquiry, argument analysis and critical thinking, and demands deep intellectual engagement.
Applying premises, conclusions, validity and soundness.
A broad perspective from Ancient Greek to contemporary philosophy.
Drawing a philosophical problem out of a non-philosophical stimulus and analysing it.
Developing a philosophical thesis, defending it and evaluating counter-arguments.
IB Philosophy explores fundamental philosophical questions through different traditions.
Essay on core themes
Optional theme essay (HL only)
The Philosophy IA requires a philosophical analysis of a non-philosophical stimulus (a work of art, film or real event).
IB Philosophy puts deep thinking and argumentation at the centre of the course, offering a unique intellectual experience for students aiming at law, politics, ethics, academic philosophy or media.
Our lessons engage students with the great philosophers' ideas while helping them develop their own philosophical perspective.
IB Philosophy tutoring covers the core theme (Being Human), the optional theme(s) chosen by the school, and the prescribed text studied (e.g. Plato's Republic, Mill's On Liberty, Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching). Paper 1 (theme essays plus stimulus), Paper 2 (prescribed text), HL Paper 3 (philosophical activity) and the Internal Assessment are all drilled in IB-specific style.
HataEssays that explain a philosopher rather than argue.
DüzeltmeTop-band IB Philosophy essays argue — agree, disagree, qualify — with reasons, examples and counter-examples. Exposition alone caps the response.
HataIgnoring counter-arguments.
DüzeltmeExaminers explicitly reward responses that engage seriously with the strongest objection to the student's own view.
HataPaper 2 answers without close reading of the text.
DüzeltmePaper 2 marks textual engagement. Generic philosophy answers without quotation or paraphrase under-score.
HataStimulus questions with weak philosophical framing.
DüzeltmeStimulus essays still expect philosophical analysis (concepts, arguments, objections), not personal reflection.
HataIA without a clear philosophical issue.
DüzeltmeThe IA must engage a specific philosophical issue raised by a non-philosophical stimulus. Loose framing caps the rubric.

Coursework + papers
We start with argument analysis (premise, conclusion, validity, objection) before any thinker, so students approach every philosopher with shared tools.
Top bands need engagement with the strongest objection. We make counter-argument a structural part of every essay, not an afterthought.
IA and HL philosophical activity are scaffolded but final written work remains the student's own work.
No. Strong reading and argumentative-writing habits are more important than prior philosophy coursework.
HL adds a second optional theme, the philosophical activity (Paper 3) and additional time on the prescribed text.
Mark schemes reward clarity of argument, engagement with counter-arguments, accurate use of philosophical concepts, and structure.
HL students often book 50–80 hours across two years; SL less. We start with a free diagnostic.
