Personal Project
The personal project is unique to the MYP and allows students to explore, develop or create something meaningful to them and reflect their personality. It is a major assessment in Grade 10, the final year of the programme. It enables the students to demonstrate the skills and knowledge that they have learned from different strands of the MYP and in particular the Areas of Interaction.
