PYP

Transdisciplinary Themes  

 

The Primary Years Programme (PYP) is a transdisciplinary curriculum framework that offers authentic learning experiences. 

 

The PYP encourages students to learn to appreciate knowledge, conceptual understandings, skills and personal attributes as a connected whole. 

 

The programme of inquiry is organised and framed by six transdisciplinary themes: 

  • 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
