subject areas.

(PYP) The PYP Curriculum Framework


The PYP curriculum framework operates on the premise that students are active agents in their learning and
integral partners in the learning process. It prioritises people and relationships to build robust learning
(Age 4 to 11)
communities. PYP students demonstrate initiative, assuming responsibility and ownership of their learning.
(PYP 1 to 5)
Through inquiry-based learning and self-reflection, PYP students acquire knowledge, conceptual
understandings, skills, and the attributes of the IB Learner Profile, empowering them to bring about positive
change in their lives, communities, and beyond.

At the heart of the framework is the emphasis on agency, which underpins three core aspects of school life:
• The learner
• Learning and teaching
• The learning community

Embedded in the framework is the acknowledgment of the significance of nurturing individuals’ self-efficacy.
Students with a strong sense of self-efficacy actively engage in their learning and take action within their

Action and
international-mindedness
Action being part of student agency, is important in the Primary Years
Programme (PYP). Through taking individual and collective action,
students will understand responsibilities associated with being
internationally-minded and appreciate the benefits of collaboration for a
shared purpose. (Oxfam 2015).

Student skills of taking action based on their inquiry lay a foundation for
community service in the Middle Years Programme (MYP) and creativity,
activity, service (CAS) in the Diploma Programme (DP). Through action,
students develop a sense of belonging to local and global communities
and they see themselves as competent, capable and active agents of
change. (Oxfam 2015, UNESCO 2015).

Action could be:


• a change in attitude
• a consideration or plan for action in the future
• a demonstration of responsibility, or of respect for self, others
and the environment
• a commitment to leading or participating in a youth
advocacy group
• an engagement in school decision-making or an expression
of support in community, local and global decision-making.

PYP Exhibition
At the end of PYP (PYP 5), students will hold an event to showcase their
learning outcomes. Parents will be invited to celebrate the learning and
end of the grade.
The MYP Programme incorporates eight subject groups interconnected through five

and motivates action in new contexts.

• Health and Social Education: Equips students with skills necessary to function effectively
within societies, empowering informed decision-making concerning their well-being.

• Environments: Explores human interaction with the broader world, encompassing our roles

Flexible enough to accommodate various national or local curricula, the MYP builds upon
the knowledge, skills, and attitudes nurtured in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP). It
effectively prepares students for the academic rigours of the IB Diploma Programme and
the IB Career-related Certificate.

Key Highlights of the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP):


• Addresses students’ intellectual, social, emotional, and physical well-being.
• Equips students to comprehend and manage the intricacies of our world, fostering skills
and attitudes necessary for responsible action towards the future.
• Ensures a comprehensive understanding of various subjects through the study of eight
subject areas.

Personal Project
The MYP students in their final year explore an area of personal interest over an
extended period of time. This provides them with the opportunity to
consolidate their learning and develop essential skills needed for both further
education and life beyond the classroom. It also helps foster the confidence to
become principled, lifelong learners.

Elements of the personal project:


The personal project formally assesses students’ approaches to learning (ATL)
skills, including self-management, research, communication, critical and
creative thinking, and collaboration. The project comprises a process, a product,
and a reflective report.

1. Process: Includes ideas, criteria, developments, challenges, plans,


research, possible solutions, and progress reports.

2. Product or Outcome: Presents evidence of tangible or intangible results,


showcasing what the student aimed to achieve or create.

3. Report: Offers an account of the project and its impact, following a


structure aligned with the assessment criteria. The report narrates both the
process of creating the project and an evaluation of its impact on the
student or their learning.

The report undergoes assessment by the supervisor and external moderation by


the IB to ensure a globally consistent standard of excellence. Each project
receives a final achievement grade.
The DP Core

IB Diploma Programme (IBDP) • The Extended Essay (EE): Involves independent research, delving into an
in-depth study of a question related to one of the DP subjects the students are
studying. The world studies extended essay option allows focusing on a
globally significant topic examined through the lens of a chosen subject.
• Theory of Knowledge (ToK): Cultivates a cohesive approach to learning that

(DP1 to 2) inquiring into the nature of knowledge, deepening their understanding of
knowledge as a human construct.
• Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS): Engages students in various activities
alongside their academic studies. Creativity encourages involvement in the arts
and creative thinking. Action promotes a healthy lifestyle through physical
activity. Service with the community offers a platform for experiential learning
and academic value. CAS's three strands enhance students' personal and
interpersonal development and facilitate journeys of self-discovery.

The DP Curriculum

grade 3 or higher in two languages.
• Study at least two languages.
• Excel in traditional academic subjects.
• Explore the nature of knowledge through the programme's unique Theory of
Knowledge (ToK) course.

Benefits of the IBDP


International research demonstrates numerous advantages of choosing the DP
over other 16 to 19 curricula. For instance:
• DP students exhibit higher rates of enrolment, persistence, and graduation
compared to the national average, as found in a study on postsecondary
outcomes of DP graduates in the United States.
• IB students in higher education institutions in the U.K. are more likely to
achieve positive higher education outcomes than their A-level peers, according
to a study comparing student performance.
• On average, DP alumni displayed higher proficiencies in various 21st-century
skills compared to their non-DP counterparts in an Asia-Pacific study.
Creativity,
Activity,
Service (CAS)
Creativity, activity, service or CAS is at the heart of the DP. Its holistic
approach is designed to strengthen and extend students’ personal and
interpersonal learning as a continuum from the PYP and MYP programmes.
This implementation is also attributed with the Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) to improve the overall sustainability within the school and
beyond. CAS is organised around the three strands of creativity, activity and
service, which are defined as follows:

Creativity
exploring and extending ideas leading to an original or
interpretive product or performance.

Activity
physical exertion contributing to a healthy lifestyle.

Service
collaborative and reciprocal engagement with the
community in response to an authentic need.

CAS aims to develop students who:


• Enjoy and find significance in a range of CAS experiences
• Purposefully reflect upon their experiences
• Identify goals, develop strategies and determine further actions
for personal growth
• Explore new possibilities, embrace new opportunities, accept new
challenges and adapt to new roles
• Actively participate in planned, sustained and collaborative CAS projects
• Understand they are members of local and global communities with
responsibilities towards each other and the environment

Immersive English Language
Programme (IELP)
Targeting students’ success in learning

Introduction
Language is the key that unlocks the door to understanding the world
around us. However, language learners often find it a challenge to
grasp the fundamentals of a language, which may affect not only their
fluency but also their learning of academic subjects in school,
especially in a foreign environment.

At UCSI International School Springhill, our unique Immersive English


Language programme aims to support each student entering into our
International Baccalaureate system through a customised approach
centred around a safe and conducive environment for practicing and
learning the English language according to each student’s level.
Why UIS Springhill?
Learning a language through immersion is one of the best ways to get
a firm foothold in order to navigate the environment and understand
the subjects being learned.

Our campus provides the ideal environment for English language


immersion. Our experienced teachers and the subjects are taught in
English in a country where English is a working language.

The perfect environment to springboard into a voyage of step-by-step


successes.
The Programme
Assessment: Students entering the IELP will be assessed to
determine their level according to the Common European
Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), an international
standard for describing language ability.

Bridging to Immersion and Growth (BIG) : Students will undergo


intensive English lessons appropriate to their level in small groups.
Guided by our trained English as Foreign Language (EFL) and
English as Second Language (ESL) teachers, the smaller setting can
facilitate more guided personal interactions and better
opportunities to practice to build their English language strength.
