TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

Built on the principles of the International Baccalaureate (IB), the MYP is guided by the learner profile, with an emphasis on developing the Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills. These promote curiosity, creative thinking, empathy, communication, collaboration and resilience. It encourages students to think critically, understand diverse perspectives, and take ownership of their learning.
