The IB-Middle Years Programme (IB-MYP) serves as a foundational stage that prepares students for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB-DP) in several ways:
- Interdisciplinary Learning: IB-MYP emphasizes interdisciplinary studies, which is also a key aspect of the IB-DP.
- Development of Key Skills: Both programs focus on developing skills such as critical thinking, research, communication, and time management.
- Inquiry-Based Learning: IB-MYP encourages inquiry-based learning, which is a cornerstone of the IB-DP.
- Learner Profile: Both programs promote the development of the IB Learner Profile attributes, which are essential for success in the IB-DP.
- Personal Project: The MYP Personal Project provides experience in independent inquiry and project management, skills that are valuable in the IB-DP.
- International Perspective: Both programs foster an international perspective, preparing students for the global outlook of the IB-DP.
