MYP projects provide students the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned in the IB MYP.
MYP years 5, all students must complete the personal project.
Each student develops a personal project independently, producing a truly personal and creative piece of work that stands as a summative review of their ability to conduct independent work.
It is an out-of-class process that is undertaken in addition to a rigorous class load. Parent support and guidance are crucial.
