Curriculum
The written curriculum is a comprehensive, school-wide set of documents that describes what will be taught in each subject to each age group. The MYP (Middle Years Programme) presents schools with a framework within which they are expected to develop their own written curriculum. It is acknowledged that many schools will not have autonomy in deciding their own content.
Curriculum development centers on four major elements.
• Key and related concepts
• Global contexts
• ATL (approaches to learning) skills
• Subject-group objectives
From these elements, documents such as subject overviews and unit planners will be developed through vertical and horizontal planning. In the written curriculum, MYP teachers can plan for service activities arising from an inquiry that will be engaging and relevant to students.
