The IB Middle Years Programme (MYP), teaches our students to think critically and ask fundamental questions. The engine driving the MYP through every class moves on the belief that all students can be taught strong applicable skills to independently solve real-world problems. The learning environment challenges them to strive for their personal best and develop a passion for learning.
