ATL Skills
We foster independent learners by teaching and assessing Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills.
Service as Action
Students are involved in Service as Action experiences and projects.
Transition Between Programmes
The MYP supports students transitioning from PYP to DP.
Grouped into 5 categories of Communication, Self-management, Research, Social and Thinking skills; these skills help students learn how to learn, reflect and transfer their learning to new and complex issues.
Through the curriculum and outside of the classroom students will learn about and be involved in Service as Action experiences and projects. The aim of which is to develop young people that are caring, responsible members of their school, local and global communities.
As a full IB continuum school, the MYP is the bridge that supports our students through their transition from the PYP and gives them the best possible preparation for the DP. We implement a range of activities and events for students and families through these important transitional moments.
