The Programme of Inquiry
The PYP focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both in the classroom and in the world outside. The six themes of global significance create a transdisciplinary framework. These themes are about issues that affect our every day lives, and offers a balance between learning about or through the subject areas, and learning beyond them.
The Programme of Inquiry is woven into all aspects of the curriculum, so that students learn core subjects through units of inquiry that have a more tangible, engaging and relatable

Teachers develop a programme of inquiry, in-depth investigations into important ideas, identified by the teachers and requiring a high level of involvement on the part of the students. These inquiries are substantial and in-depth and last for a number of weeks.
Assessment is an important part of each unit of inquiry as it both enhances learning and provides opportunities for students to reflect on what they know, understand and can do. The teacher’s feedback to the students provides the guidance, the tools and the incentive for them to become more competent, more skillful and better at understanding how to learn.
