IB Primary Years Programme (PYP): year 1-6

This stage focuses on developing young students as caring, active participants in a lifelong learning journey.

The PYP (Primary Years Programme) offers an inquiry-based, transdisciplinary curriculum framework that builds conceptual understanding. It is a student-centered approach to education for children aged 3-11. It reflects the best of educational research, thought, leadership and experience derived from IB World Schools.
