SBS Curriculum
The PYP encourages creative thinking, learning, and growth, with the learner at the center of it all. Their curriculum is important, current, tough, and enjoyable. Every curriculum contains a natural dichotomy of content and methodology.
This combination of relevant material and engaging instruction at Sunnybrook brings education to life for students.
The conventional disciplines are used to create the content of their curriculum. The pedagogy is based on current methodologies, with an emphasis on inquiry-based learning. Their objective is for students to create their own meaning as they explore topics, learn new things, and improve their abilities.
They work together with their classmates to ask relevant questions and better comprehend all they're studying. Learning comes alive as a result of a planned combination of appealing subjects and attractive presentations, and children are attracted to it.
