What is CAS?
CAS is a compulsory component of the IB Diploma Programme. It stands for Creativity, Action and Service. It is a great opportunity to try new things, develop skills and help the local community.
​
The Creativity strand of CAS involves any experience that encompasses creative thinking such as learning a new instrument, decorating the school, or writing articles for a blog. Any physical activities that contribute to a healthy lifestyle fall under the Activity strand of CAS, this includes any team or individual sport. Service involves the interaction with a group or an individual that benefits the community. Examples include tutoring younger students, helping at an animal centre, or cooperating with a non-governmental organisation.
​
A CAS activity can either be a continuation of a previous pursuit or a brand new one. Activities can be done outside of school, however, the school offers a variety of different undertakings.
​
The aim of CAS is to fulfil the 7 learning objectives: identify own strengths and develop areas for growth, demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken developing new skills in the process, demonstrate how to plan and initiate a CAS experience, showing commitment and perseverance, demonstrating skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively, demonstrate engagement with issues of global significance and consider the ethics of choices and actions.
​
Not only is CAS necessary to get the IB Diploma, it is the perfect chance to involve oneself in an activity or a sport they’ve been interested and show engagement in the local area.
