WAB Learns: MYP for Parents: Support

"It's not the same as when I was at school...!"

The Middle Years Programme (and learning in an international school) can feel very different to the education we had as children. Don't worry!

We can support our own kids with conversation, time and resources. The image to the right comes from Project Zero at Harvard's Graduate School of Education. The work of PZ at HGSE and other top universities informs and supports the development of the IB Programmes.

Our student support, counseling, library and coordinator teams are here and ready to help.
