At American Culture – Private Bandırma College, the National Education Curriculum and its achievements are enriched and implemented with the learning and teaching approach offered by the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IB PYP). In this way, we aim to raise globally minded and locally minded, questioning, knowledgeable and sensitive individuals with student-centered methods and techniques.

IB Misyonu:

The International Baccalaureate aims to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end, it focuses on developing inquisitive, knowledgeable and caring young people.

To achieve this goal, the IB:

• It develops superior educational programs with international validity by collaborating with schools, governments and international organizations.
• It encourages students from all corners of the world to become active, compassionate, lifelong learners who understand that the views of those who differ from them may also be correct.

IB PYP – International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme:

The IB PYP is a program designed for students ages 3 to 12. In this program, students:

• They are prepared to be active participants in a lifelong learning journey.
• They develop as inquiring individuals both in the classroom and in the outside world.
• They are guided by six transdisciplinary themes of global significance.
• They use knowledge and skills derived from the six areas, as well as transdisciplinary skills with a strong emphasis on inquiry.

Flexible Structure of PYP:

The PYP is flexible enough to adapt to the demands of national and local curricula, so our students can stay connected to their own culture while receiving an education at international standards.

At American Culture – Private Bandırma College, we train our students to be leaders of the future by taking advantage of all the advantages offered by the IB PYP.
