Teachers organise continuous assessment over the course of the programme taking account of specified criteria that correspond to the objectives for each subject. The MYP offers a criterion-referenced model of assessment. This means that pupils' results are determined by performance against set standards, not by each pupil's position in the overall rank order.

Teachers are responsible for structuring varied and valid assessment tasks that allow students to demonstrate achievement according to the required objectives within each subject group. These may include:

  1. Bulletopen-ended, problem-solving activities and investigations

  2. Bulletorganized debates

  3. Bullethands - on experimentations

  4. Bulletanalysis

  5. Bulletreflection

Assessment strategies, both quantitative and qualitative, provide feedback on the thinking processes as well as the finished piece of work. There is also an emphasis on self-assessment and peer-assessment within the programme.

Personal Project :
In the final year of the programme, each student completes a personal project, a significant piece of work that is the product of the student’s own initiative and creativity.

Each project must reflect a personal understanding of the areas of interaction. Students apply the skills acquired through one of these areas as well as approaches to learning.
