IB Primary Years Programme
The IBPYP provides an opportunity for learners aged 3 to 11 to
construct meaning, principally through concept-driven enquiry.
Traditional academic subjects are part of a programme which
emphasises the interrelatedness of knowledge and skills through a
transdisciplinary programme of enquiry. The IBPYP focuses on the
academic, as well as social, physical, emotional, and cultural
needs of students.
The IBPYP aims to develop in children:
- sensitivity to the experiences of others through the
curriculum
- the characteristics listed in the student profile
- the attitudes that are an explicit element of the
programme
- the expectation of socially responsible action as a result of
the learning experience.
