According to the nature of MYP, learning is not regarded as being confined within the scope of deeper and enduring learning if it does not refer specifically to the learner’s personality, interest, profile and future. Students should become more aware of the relevance of their learning, and come to see knowledge as an interrelated whole. Holistic learning emphasizes the links between the disciplines, providing a global view of situations and issues. MYP takes over the most outstanding role in such an essence of an innovative approach that enables an enduring learning for the student, oriented towards the big idea as a blending of related concepts from each subject course and that of key concepts about real life connections.

They also form the basis for the MYP’s curriculum framework and compliment both the Turkish National Curriculum and the educational philosophy of Eyüboğlu Schools. MYP is guided by three fundamental points that underpin its development, both internationally and in individual schools. The programme aims to develop students’ understanding of the interdisciplinary subjects and enables them to critically examine their place and role in the world at large. MYP is a suitable framework within which the requirements of the Turkish National Curriculum can be met. Eyüboğlu Schools began implementing the MYP in the 1999-2000 academic year. The Middle Years Programme (MYP) of the International Baccalaureate (IB) is a course of study designed to meet the educational requirements of students aged between 10 and 16 years.
