Primary Years Programme
The PYP is designed for students aged 3 to 12. It focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both in the classroom and in the world outside. It is a framework guided by six transdisciplinary themes of global significance, explored using knowledge and skills derived from six subject areas, as well as transdisciplinary skills, with a powerful emphasis on inquiry. The PYP is flexible enough to accommodate the demands of most national or local curriculums and provides the best preparation for students to engage in the IB Middle Years Programme.
The IB Primary Years Programme:
- Addresses students’ academic, social and emotional well-being.
- Encourages students to develop independence and to take responsibility for their own learnings.
- Supports students’ efforts to gain an understanding of the world and to function comfortably within it.
- Helps students establish personal values as a foundation upon which international-mindedness will develop and flourish.
