PYP Parents Programme

”Agency “enable[s] people to play a part in their self-development, adaptation, and self-renewal with changing times”

PYP students with agency use their own initiative and will, and take responsibility and ownership of their learning. They direct their learning with a strong sense of identity and selfbelief, and in conjunction with others, thereby building a sense of community and awareness of the opinions, values and needs of others.”

We talked about how teachers, as well as parents, need to have a fluid role in children’s learning. Sometimes leading explicitly, and at other times, taking one or more steps backward, so that the children can take steps forward in their journey to independence.

Our next meeting will take place on 7 March 2023, Tuesday, 15.00-16.00. This time we will be inquiring into “Concept based learning: Seeing the big picture.” You can write to Selda. Mansur@acgedu.com if you would like to learn more about PYP implementation and please contact Mia.Sari@acgedu.com , if you plan to join our March workshop.
