IB Middle Years Programme (MYP)
Our Grade 6 to 10 curriculum follows the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP), a world-recognised student accreditation.
The main premise of the MYP is to produce global citizens who are effective communicators and active lifelong learners. The programme incorporates the use of criteria-based assessments that highlight the strengths of each student. In addition to this, Carmel School offers Jewish Studies and International Studies curricula.
Each student is graded on a seven point scale, with higher levels indicating a greater mastery of the skills and concepts covered in the subject coursework.
The curriculum used has been developed to provide each student with the prerequisite skills and knowledge to allow them a seamless entry into the Diploma Programme. The MYP prepares students for the DP by reflecting the depth, breadth and balance that is characteristic of all IB programmes.
As students anticipate the DP in the final two years of the MYP, students and their families work with the School to make important decisions about subject choices, qualifications and university options.
