The IB Middle Years Programme?
• The MYP is designed for students aged 11 to 16. It provides a
framework of learning which encourages students to become
creative, critical and reflective thinkers.
• The MYP emphasizes intellectual challenge, encouraging
students to make connections between their studies in
traditional subjects and to the real world.
• It fosters the development of skills for communication,
intercultural understanding and global engagement, qualities
that are essential for life in the 21st century.
