IB PYP
IB Primary Years Programme
The International Baccalaureate® (IB) Primary Years Programme also known as the IB PYP is a curriculum framework designed for students aged 3 to 12.
The PYP transdisciplinary framework focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both at school and beyond.
Informed by research into how students learn, how educators teach, and the principles and practice of effective assessment, the programme places a powerful emphasis on inquiry-based learning.
The Primary Years Programme (PYP) balances the acquisition of significant and relevant knowledge and skills, the development of conceptual understanding, the formation of personal, positive attitudes and the capacity to take responsible actions.
The PYP aims to create a curriculum that is engaging, relevant, challenging and significant for learners and is transdisciplinary, meaning that it focuses on issues that go across subject areas.
The PYP:
- Addresses students' academic needs and their social and emotional well-being.
- Encourages students to develop independence and to take responsibility for their own learning.
- Supports students' effort to gain understanding of the world and to function effectively within it.
- Helps students to establish personal values as a foundation on which international mindedness will flourish.
It provides a curriculum framework of essential elements — the knowledge, concepts, skills, attitudes, and action that young students need to equip them for successful lives, both now and in the future.
We work with the five elements to construct a rigorous and challenging primary curriculum for international education.
