Primary Years Programs (PYP) Schools
Since its inception 43 years ago, the International Baccalaureate program aims to provide students with the best education possible and to create a better and more peaceful world. Educational efforts focus on the whole child as an inquirer, not just the academic with student and teacher centered approaches to learning that are collaborative in nature.
The IB Primary Years Programme, for students aged 3 to 12, continues to experience impressive growth in Florida. With a current network of twenty-seven (27) authorized PYP schools across the state, the Primary Years Programme:
- encourages international-mindedness in IB students.
- encourages a positive attitude to learning by engaging students in inquiries and developing their awareness of the process of learning so that they become lifelong learners.
- reflects real life by encouraging learning beyond traditional subjects with meaningful, in-depth inquiries into real issues.
To learn more about the Primary Years Programme, please download the PYP Promotional Flyer.
