Welcome to the Junior School
Welcome to The York School, where we ignite a passion for lifelong learning, curiosity, and taking action in every student.
We are proud to embrace the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Program (PYP) approach. This renowned framework is centered on inquiry-based learning, encouraging students to be active, compassionate, and lifelong learners. The PYP empowers students to explore topics deeply, develop critical thinking skills, and understand the interconnectedness of the world.
At The York School, we believe that education is not just about acquiring knowledge; it's about fostering a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. We believe that curiosity is the key to unlocking a world of possibilities, and we encourage our students to ask questions, inquire, and look for answers.
As a PYP school, we value student voice and agency. We believe that when students have a say in their own learning, they become more engaged, motivated, and empowered. Our dedicated educators work collaboratively with students to co-create their educational journey, ensuring that their interests and goals are at the forefront of their learning experience.
Our curriculum is designed to challenge students, pushing them beyond their comfort zones to reach new heights. We believe that it is through facing challenges that true growth occurs. Our students develop resilience, critical thinking skills, and a strong sense of self-confidence as they tackle complex problems and explore new horizons.
