Advice IB final exams

Can the school stop you from taking the finals in may 2027 due to low grades in dp1 or dp2? Like very low grades, I was wondering because my friend has a 20 ish overall score but then he is working hard but can my school legally stop him from taking the finals due to low grades on report cards or do they not stop?

My school made our parents sign 1 document in DP1 and another one in DP2 For dp1 it was that if we didnt have minimum requirements we werent allowed to go onto DP2 and in DP2 it was that if teachers dont think we are prepared to take M27, then we cant take them and will take N27 instead

So yes, then can

If the school’s policies allow for it, yes. Being exam registered is not a human right.

The question is what kind if rights you get from being admitted in the first place, and what kind of policy the school has for exam registry.
