IB-PRIMARY YEARS PROGRAMME
The IB-PYP curriculum is a curriculum, a philosophy and a methodology for young learners from LKG to Grade 5. In this program, emphasis is placed on trans-disciplinary and inquiry-based learning.

The core focus of Manchester is learning and teaching in a caring, safe and welcoming environment where students are challenged to strive for personal excellence. The school believes in encouraging children to enquire. They are encouraged to do research work and question themselves How? Why? and When?

HOW IS THE PROGRAMME IS TAUGHT?
The most significant and distinctive feature of the IB Primary Years Programs is the six transdisciplinary themes. These themes are about issues that have meaning for, and are important to, all of us. The program offers a balance between learning about or through the subject areas, and learning beyond them. The six themes of global significance create a transdisciplinary framework that allows students to “step up” beyond the confines of learning within subject areas.

Who we are?
Where we are in place and time
How we express ourselves
How the world works
How we organize ourselves
Sharing the Planet
The program puts great emphasis on learning about these transdisciplinary themes. Every theme is addressed each year by all students. The themes provide the opportunity to incorporate local and global issues into the curriculum.
