IB Middle Years Programme*


Our 11 to 14-year-old students follow the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP). The MYP is an internationally recognised curriculum framework, which values holistic learning through academic and personal growth. A concept-based curriculum, the MYP invites students to ask thought-provoking questions and create innovative solutions to real-world challenges, all while developing personally as reflective and resilient learners.

 

The MYP structures learning around 8 subject groups: Language and Literature, Language Acquisition, Individuals and Societies, Integrated Sciences, Mathematics, Physical Health and Education, Design and Arts (Visual and Performing). Students learn through an inquiry-based approach to learning – investigating problems and grappling with complex ideas framed by global contexts. Learning is frequently collaborative, and students are challenged to develop skills in effective communication and self-regulation. The MYP truly develops lifelong learners

 

Enrichment learning features highly our Key Stage 3 programme. All students participate in enrichment activities, where they take risks, make new friends, and grow further. We offer a variety of athletics, arts and community engagement activities through enrichment to complement our academic programme.
