Middle Years Programme (IBMYP)
The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (IBMYP)

The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (IBMYP) is designed for the unique needs of children ages eleven to sixteen (grades 6 through 10) when they need to develop good learning habits, self-confidence, and a thorough understanding of their academic subjects

Our student-centered educational approach embraces and transcends traditional school subjects by helping our students see the connections between the academic disciplines.
Our Middle Years Programme is designed to suit the needs of our global community. We encourage students to actively participate in their learning, share their own experiences and knowledge within the classroom, and value the diversity of thought throughout our community.

We embrace the IB goal of providing our students with “the intellect and skills to pursue lives of purpose and meaning” and promote the characteristics of the IB Learner profile.
At Millwood School, we seek to help our students be seen, heard, and inspired on their journeys to self-discovery. We aim to prepare our students for the future, to help them make a difference in this world, and most importantly, to learn how to learn.
