Not only is our PYP coordinator fluent in IB, she facilitates meetings, heads us towards goals, helps us manage our time to ensure we are focused. On the other hand, teachers have ownership over the direction we head and we have a say in the development of the program of inquiry

We have IB Coordinators at the PYP, MYP and DP levels. Each of these coordinators is trained and attends BCAIBWS meetings to keep connected with the community. IB Coordinators then facilitate meetings with HODs and teachers.

PYP student involvement

2024-11-19 00:09:05 UTC

Students are actively involved in our learning community by:

-being involved in the choice of learning materials such as choosing which music they learn, choosing their inquiry topics for the Exhibition, setting essential agreements, surveyed in PHE as to what topics they understood best, choosing their favorite Island games for weekly sports competitions (in Grade 5 in particular they choose which sports they participate in every week so many sports are played simultaneously)

Many enriching activities are open to students such as after-school clubs, field trips, student council, recess assistants, etc .
