DEVELOPING YOUR PYP FRAMEWORK: EARLY YEARS

How might teachers and leaders enhance their understanding of learner agency and co-constructing meaning in the early years? How can examining the image of the child along with the 2020 Programme Standards and Practices support this? Playful experiences during the early years lay the foundation for positive social and cognitive learning. Discover how the central features of play, learning environments, relationships and symbolic exploration and expression support early years learning as part of the PYP framework. This workshop will support teachers and leaders to reflect on their current practices in their unique contexts, identify school systems, structures and policies that support learning and teaching in the early years and consider actions they can take to develop playful inquiry in their early years setting.
