What is PYP?
The Learner Profile in a PYP curriculum defines who the student is. When learning from the PYP curriculum, there is a broad range of growth within our intellectual, personal, emotional and social growth abilities.

Lifelong Learners
This program allows students within the PYP program to be Lifelong Learners, using their skills as they develop and also much later in life. The need to keep learning is inevitable but the skills that are developed to use those lifelong learning tools come from a unique and cultivated curriculum.
International Mindedness
International Mindedness is a big part of the PYP curriculum and enables students to be more aware, respectful, and grateful for the world around them. Things like embracing multilingualism are focused and emphasised within the International Mindedness category. Engaging on a global scale is also beneficial towards your learners and can challenge them to go further with more opportunities as they grow into adults.
Language
When communicating and educating students, language is an important aspect to consider. It is at the heart of transdisciplinarity learning and allows students to collaborate their learning and combine both understandings to make a larger idea.

Approaches to Learning
Approaching learning multiple ways allows the student to understand the concept from a multitude of perspectives. Assessing how concepts can be looked at through a variety of lenses allows the student to acquire that perceptiveness throughout life.
Inquiry Process
Within planning, teachers need to allow students to lead the flow of inquiry. To do this, tools like the compass, allow teachers to prepare for these situations. Within this plan, the big 4 questions to as are:
-
-
N: What else do you need to know or find out about student-led inquiry in order to evaluate this approach?
-
Regardless of the subject, collaboration in planning is a critical point to ensuring the PYP curriculum is truly achieved. Transdisciplinary learning allows that collaboration to happen.
Learning Environments
Assessing and improving your current learning space to enable full use of the PYP curriculum can help educators tremendously. Collaborating on subjects will be much easier if visually, they are already combined. Creating a space for the learner to inquire, connect, and grow in multiple aspects, is what makes the education a PYP curriculum.
