What is the MYP?
The MYP is a challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their studies and the real world. The MYP curriculum framework comprises eight subject groups, providing a broad and balanced education for early adolescents.
​
The Middle Years Programme (MYP) helps students develop both subject-specific and interdisciplinary understanding. The MYP curriculum framework includes:
Approaches to learning (ATL), helping students learn how to learn by developing skills for research, critical and creative thinking, communication, collaboration, and self-management
​
Key and related concepts, helping students explore big ideas that matter
​
Global contexts, helping students understand the relevance and importance of their study for understanding their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet.
​
The MYP culminates in an independent learning project, the Personal Project: Students complete a significant piece of work over an extended period of time, encouraging them to consolidate their learning and reflect on the outcomes of their work.
