Middle Years Programme
From ages 11-16, our students take the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme, or IB MYP, a challenging and balanced curriculum that creates creative, reflective thinkers.
Building a Broad Knowledge Base
Students cover the major disciplines, gaining a broad education with the option to specialise in later years. Subject groups include:
- Language acquisition
- Language and literature
- Individuals and societies (integrated humanities)
- Sciences
- Mathematics
- Arts (visual arts, music, theatre)
- Physical and health education
- Design
They undertake MYP eAssessments in Grade 10, resulting in an internationally-recognised certificate.
"The IB curriculum keeps us abreast with contemporary matters, enabling us to be constantly aware and informed. I am grateful for receiving such a well-designed curriculum at the Academy."

Personal Project Journeys
Throughout the MYP, the students connect their classroom work to the wider world and showcase their learning through their personal project. They connect knowledge from different disciplines to solve problems collaboratively, bringing critical thinking to global issues. They consider the needs of their local communities or wider society, and initiate their own projects to bring about positive change. Each element contributes to students’ ethical leadership training, enabling them to emerge as transformative young leaders.
Exploring My Heritage
“My personal project began as a school requirement but soon became a meaningful journey of self-discovery and cultural connection. While researching the Shughnani community of Badakhshan, Afghanistan, I gained a deeper understanding of its traditions and felt proud to be part of such a rich culture.
This led me to create a magazine titled “Shughnan, Roof of the World”, which showcased my heritage. With limited sources, I relied on primary research, strengthening my communication and organisation skills. This project became a way to preserve and celebrate Shughnani culture and inspire others to value their roots.”
