How the PYP Shapes Students’ Personalities at MGIS
October 3rd, 2024
MGIS is a candidate school for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and is working towards becoming an IB World
School. Committed to the International Baccalaureate’s principles, we focus on delivering a high-quality,
globally-minded education that nurtures the holistic development of our students.
At MGIS, the PYP plays a vital role in shaping students’ personalities. By fostering a love for learning, the PYP
encourages open-mindedness and critical thinking. It helps students become reflective individuals who approach
challenges with a problem-solving mindset.
The program also focuses on global issues and intercultural topics, which instills respect for diversity, and a sense
of commitment towards their community. These values help students grow into compassionate, tolerant individuals.
Moreover, the PYP emphasizes student agency & voice, empowering students to take ownership of their education.
This nurtures self-confidence and independence, enabling students to become responsible and proactive.
Teamwork and communication are essential elements of the PYP, helping students develop important social skills.
Through collaborative projects and group activities, students learn to work effectively with others, value different
perspectives, and share responsibilities.
This focus on teamwork not only enhances their ability to cooperate but also builds trust and mutual respect among peers. By practicing clear and respectful communication, students improve their ability to express ideas confidently and listen actively to others, which strengthens both their academic and personal relationships.
