IB MYP

What is the International Baccalaureate Organization?

The IBO is a nonprofit educational foundation, motivated by its mission, focused on the student.

The IBO is a recognized leader in the field of international education, encouraging students to be active learners, well-rounded individuals and engaged world citizens.

Founded in 1968, we currently work with 1,782 schools in 122 countries to develop and offer three challenging programmes to over 200,000 students aged 3 to 19 years.

What is the Middle Years Programme?

It is a programme of international education designed to help students develop the knowledge, understanding, attitudes and skills necessary to participate actively and responsibly in a changing world. The International Baccalaureate® Middle Years Programme (MYP) is designed for students aged 11 to 16.

This period, encompassing early puberty and mid-adolescence, is a particularly critical phase of personal and intellectual development and requires a programme that helps students participate actively and responsibly in a changing and increasingly interrelated world. Learning how to learn and how to evaluate information critically is as important as learning facts.

Curriculum documents are published in English, French, Spanish and Chinese but schools may offer the programme in other languages.
