IBprocess.pdfWhat does it mean to be an authorised MYP school?
The IBO requires a school vision and mission that align with their philosophy.
It also provides a framework for teaching and learning, as well as specific academic standards for evaluation of student learning.
Some of the core elements which the IB-MYP values are:
international-mindedness
community service
values (as the Learner Profiles)
competencies (as the Approaches to Learning Skills)
inquiry-based, project-based, integrated learning
development of the student as a person
standards-based learning
student agency (independence)
Schools must undergo a candidacy process before being authorized by the IBO to provide a specific program.
During the candidacy phase, the school works with the IBO to align their program with its framework and policies, in order to provide a clear, developed and consistent continuum of learning for the students.
