Findings of the team: Unit planners are used by classroom teachers for units of inquiry. • Single subject teachers document all their teaching and learning on the homeroom planner. However, the planners do not show how single subject teachers address the five essential elements within their subject areas, or how teachers use the backwards design principles when planning teaching and learning. • Class observations indicate that teaching and learning within single subject areas is mainly based around activities rather than conceptual understandings.The IB Recommends thatthe school further extends the use of the primary years programme planner for planning all teaching and learning across the school.
