The Learner Profile

The Learner Profile

The cornerstone of the Primary Years Programme (PYP) is the Learner Profile. These are the ten most important attributes of an international person. At ISPS, we want the students to transfer and practice each profile in their daily lives. All teachers and students model these attributes which are woven into the learning, and foster ways to develop these characteristics in all areas. While we strive to develop the international student as part of implementing the PYP, this does not mean that we have to study other nationalities and cultures to develop the profile. Wherever we are in the world, and whatever we are learning, the characteristics of the learner profile define us as an international person, according to the International Baccalaureate Organization Primary Years Programme.
