Taught Curriculum
The taught curriculum is the part of the International Baccalaureate© (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP) that sets out its pedagogical approach.
It identifies how schools should teach the PYP written curriculum.
The PYP is committed to structured, purposeful inquiry that engages students actively in their own learning. The programme supports students’ efforts to construct meaning from the world around them by:
- drawing on their prior knowledge
- providing provocation through new experiences
- providing opportunities for reflection and consolidation
This approach respects students’ developing ideas about how the world works. It encourages them to question, consider and refine their understanding of the social and natural world.
