IB World Schools are learning communities that encourage school leaders, teachers, students, parents and local community members to value learning as an essential and integral part of their everyday lives. IB World Schools support lifelong learning when they emphasise “learning how to learn”, helping students interact effectively with the learning environments they encounter in school and beyond. Communities are bound together by a common sense of purpose and identity.
Transition from the PYP to the MYP
Transition from the PYP to the MYP
The nature of teaching and learning in the PYP is concept-based, trans-disciplinary and largely taught by a single classroom teacher. IB World Schools offering the MYP have a responsibility to ensure that there is a smooth transition from the trans-disciplinary model into a model that focuses on disciplinary and interdisciplinary learning.
In the Middle Years Programme, students explore six global contexts that are developed from and extend the Primary Years Programme trans-disciplinary themes: Identities and relationships, Personal and cultural expression, Orientation in space and time, Scientific and technical innovation, Fairness and development, and Globalisation and sustainability.
