The MYP personal project is a student-centered and age-appropriate practical exploration in which students consolidate their learning throughout the programme. This long-term project is designed for Year 5 as an independent learning experience for a minimum of 25 hours. The Personal Project formally assesses students’ ATL skills for self-management, research, communication, critical and creative thinking, and collaboration. It marks the culmination of MYP Journey.
