SNAPSHOT OF FRAMEWORK OF PYP
The framework for learning at Holy Trinity Primary School– is the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP).
The PYP is complex, but can be broken down into five Essential Elements that create the learning context at Holy Trinity.
Knowledge – significant and relevant content that we want to explore
Concepts – ideas that lead to a deeper understanding of subject areas
Skills – capabilities that we need in order to succeed in a challenging world
Attitudes – core elements that influence the development of feelings and beliefs
Action – applying our learning through responsible behavior to real-world situations
All of these elements combined to create the learning environment at Holy Trinity and are equally important; without any one of them, our program is incomplete.
Our teaching and leadership teams work very hard to provide learning opportunities that make this written document come alive, and the challenge of doing this involves constant discussion, collaboration, research, innovation and professional learning. We are all learners and relish the opportunity to talk about education with others, to learn from their experiences and share ours.
