In this course, we teach your child how to use journaling to organise their thoughts, reflect deeply on what they’ve learned and improve their writing fluency. This practice not only enhances creativity and self-expression but also builds the mental clarity needed for everything from exams to interviews. Journaling hones their ability to think critically and communicate effectively on paper—an invaluable skill for academic success.

Why Choose This Course?
This unique combination of Harkness Discussion and Journaling training will give your child a distinctive advantage. They will learn to think on their feet during discussions, engage thoughtfully with others, and articulate their ideas with clarity and confidence. At the same time, they’ll develop a personal writing practice that fosters creativity, self-discipline, and sharp analytical thinking. By the end of the course, your child will be equipped to lead in discussions and express themselves masterfully in writing, skills that will serve them well not only in school but throughout life.

Prepare Your Child for Success with Our MYP International Baccalaureate Course

The Middle Years Programme (MYP) of the International Baccalaureate (IB) is more than just an academic curriculum—it’s a philosophy that shapes students into thoughtful, informed, and compassionate global citizens. Our MYP course is designed to help your child excel in this challenging and prestigious programme, while embracing the core values of the IB: critical thinking, international-mindedness, and a commitment to lifelong learning.

Our approach goes beyond traditional teaching. We foster the development of skills that matter not only in the classroom but in the real world. For instance, when teaching history, we don’t just cover facts and dates. We encourage students to critically evaluate history by questioning different perspectives, analysing sources, and understanding the broader global context of events. Imagine your child engaging with the topic of historical re-evaluation—not just learning about what happened in the past but actively questioning how historical narratives are formed, who writes them, why it mattered then and why it matters today. This in-depth analysis helps them think critically, form well-rounded opinions, and understand the importance of diverse viewpoints—exactly what the IB stands for.

What Sets This Course Apart?
Our MYP course is guided by the values that define the IB programme. We teach students to be open-minded and reflective, nurturing their ability to connect ideas across subjects and apply their learning to real-world challenges. Whether it’s exploring complex issues like climate change, social justice, or ethical dilemmas, your child will gain the skills to approach these topics thoughtfully and confidently. We emphasize international-mindedness—helping students become aware of their role as global citizens—and encourage inquiry-based learning that sparks curiosity and innovation.

Why Should You Enrol?
Our course is specifically tailored to the demands of the MYP, helping your child succeed academically while instilling the IB’s core values of respect, empathy, and critical inquiry. By enrolling, your child will not only perform well in assessments but will develop a mindset that prepares them for the future—one where they are equipped to tackle global challenges with confidence and insight. They'll learn how to think critically, communicate effectively, and apply their knowledge to create positive change in the world.

Give your child the opportunity to thrive in the IB programme and beyond—invest in their future today!

Effective learning aligned with the core values of the International Baccalaureate - leading to global citizens who are curious, highly knowledgeable, well-rounded and thoughtful.
