Where are we with
MYP: the Next Chapter ?
• Decisions: Proposed changes are still in development and
have not yet been approved.
• Pilots: Aspects of the proposed changes are being piloted and
final decisions will be taken as the outcomes of these pilots
become clear.
• Transition: The IB will guide schools in a gradual process and
give maximum notice of change. The IB is mindful of the need
for schools to be able to allocate resources efficiently.

Curriculum development
• Contextual learning
– Evolution of areas of interaction to global contexts
• Conceptual framework
– Key and related concepts
– Disciplinary understandings
– Central ideas
• Curriculum planning
• Alignment across PYP, MYP and DP
7
Approaches to learning (ATL)
•
•
•
•
ATL to become part of all three programmes
Much stronger emphasis
Related to command terms
Divided into five skills areas common with PYP and DP:
 Communication
 Social
 Self-management
 Research
 Thinking
• Not subject specific, but guides will include subject specific
examples
© International Baccalaureate Organization
Timeline of curriculum development
• Develop guides by 2014
• No guides or TSMs will be published after 2012 until the
launch of MYP: the next chapter suite of documents
• Gathering feedback through:
a)
b)
c)
d)
Surveying schools
School visits and in conferences
Curriculum review meetings and piloting of draft guides
Informal feedback received from a range of stakeholders including
MYP & DP students

MYP internal assessment
Developments:
• All subjects are moving to four criteria
• Mandated interim criteria and objectives for MYP1 and MYP3
will be proposed
• Command terms will be used to define levels of the criteria in
all subjects
• Common criteria will be aligned across subjects where
applicable
• Monitoring of assessment will continue
– Investigating whether online training for moderators could be made
available as professional development for all MYP teachers.

• Moderation of personal

• External summative
assessment

Potential assessment model
Investigation is being done into the following model:
• External assessment in MYP year 5:
–
–
–
–
–
Will be optional
Electronic, criterion related assessment
Disciplinary and interdisciplinary components
Based on key concepts and developed around global issues
Will be piloted and aims for recognition
• Mandatory moderation for the personal project
• Subject moderation would be phased out
12
Subject groups
• The MYP will remain an octagon and will not move towards a
hexagon.
• Investigation of a flexibility option for schools that have
difficulty offering all eight subject groups in MYP years 4-5:
Students may have a choice of subject groups in years 4 and 5
of the programme:
– Minimum of six subject groups must be studied concurrently
– Language B (or second Language A) mandatory for all students in all
years
• Currently being piloted in schools to study the effects on
teaching and learning
13
Feedback from schools
Survey sent to coordinators in all IB World Schools, both to
schools that had or did not have MYP (May 2011)
• MYP schools: 94% of respondents considered that, taken
together, they would view the changes as being positive in
their school
• IB schools without MYP: 91% of respondents considered that,
taken together, they would view the changes as being positive
and would consider implementing the MYP in their school.
