Murrumbeena Primary School is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, authorised to teach the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP). It is an internationally recognised programme and provides the framework for implementing the Victorian Curriculum.
The PYP focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer and life-long learner, both in the classroom and in the wider world. The Programme develops ‘internationally minded, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.’ (IBO Mission Statement). The PYP also involves the traditions of learning languages, humanities, mathematics, sciences and the arts. In order to promote this development, there is an emphasis on recognising and developing the attributes of the IB Learner Profile.
