IB Programme
Hinkley offers one of the district's few International Baccalaureate programmes,[3] and is one of only a handful of schools to offer an IB Human Rights course.[4]
In order to ease the 150-hour community service requirement of the IB Programme, a student organization known as the Landmines Task Force was created. The group raises money and awareness regarding the international landmine problem, donating through the United Nations Association's Adopt-A-Minefield to help eradicate landmines in Mozambique.
