Grade 6 to Grade 10

Nurturing Individual Strengths

We have proudly hosted the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) for nearly 30 years which makes use one of the oldest MYP schools globally.  This experience has allowed us to build a meaningful curriculum that is relevant to all students in our care.

The MYP is in a wonderful position in that it bridges the gap between the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) and the IB Diploma Programme (DP).  Being a continuum school, we have a well-structured curriculum that sets students up for success in the next Programme and beyond.

Within the MYP, students engage with their learning through Global Contexts, fostering connections between their studies and the world around them. At the heart of the MYP are the Service as Action and Personal Project components, which empower students to demonstrate their learning in authentic and impactful ways.
