At ACS Doha we follow the world-renowned International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) for our Early Childhood curriculum, for Grades Pre-K-K (ages 3-6). The programme provides a planned curriculum with a focus on purposeful play, active learning, creativity, and critical thinking. We support students of diverse needs and abilities, and encourage our learners to actively explore their environment. Our goal is to create a community of passionate young people who have been provided with a strong educational foundation that can support them as they embark on lifetime learning journeys.
IB Primary Years Programme (IBPYP)
The IBPYP nurtures and develops our 3 to 6 year olds, experiences during the early years lay the foundation for all future learning.
The following features are central to learning in the IBPYP programme:
- Play
- Relationships
- Learning spaces
- Symbolic exploration
- Expression
The learning community values the early years as a time in which play is the primary driver for inquiry.
