Quality and Innovation

The International Baccalaureate Organization's Middle Years Programme has been taught at our institution since 2016.

The MYP runs from Year 6 to Year 9. The programme provides our students with the tools and spaces necessary for inquiry, applied through daily work in their authentic assignments and their Personal Project.

Personal Project

Year 9 students complete the MYP by developing their Personal Project, which is based on their own interests and carried out independently, allowing them to creatively demonstrate the full range of their abilities.

The Personal Project is a culminating experience in which students:

  • Choose a topic of personal interest.
  • Research, plan, and create a product or outcome.
  • Reflect on their learning and the development of their ATL skills.

 

It is an authentic demonstration of autonomy, creativity, and commitment.
