2024-2025 Official IB Program Policy Guide GMHS
The Middle Years Programme is a challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their students and the real world. Students who complete the Middle Years Programme are well-prepared to undertake the IB Diploma Programme offered in their junior and senior years. MYP comprises eight subject groups: Language acquisition, Language and literature, Individuals and sociesting, Sciences, Mathematics, Arts, Physical and health education and Design. The MYP aims to help students develop their personal understanding, their emerging sense of self and responsibility in their community. ALL students will follow the Middle Years Programme.
