Middle Years Programme

The International Baccalaureate® (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) is for students aged 11-16. 

From IBO.org 

The MYP is a five-year programme that encourages students aged 11 to 16 to make practical connections between their studies and the real world. Students who complete the MYP are well-prepared to undertake the IB Diploma Programme (DP) or Career-related Programme (CP). 

Students participating in the MYP: 

• Build confidence in managing their own learning 
• Learn by doing, connecting the classroom to the larger world 
• Outperform non-IB students in critical academic skills  
• Consistently have greater success in IB Diploma Programme examinations 
• Thrive in positive school cultures where they are engaged and motivated to excel  
• Develop an understanding of global challenges and a commitment to act as responsible citizens 

The MYP builds on the knowledge, skills and attitudes developed by the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), and prepares students for the demanding requirements of the IB Diploma Programme (DP) and IB Career-related Programme (CP).
