In the PYP, all educators are curriculum designers! The entire school community comes together to develop a locally and globally relevant programme of inquiry (POI) for their learners. While this process can be joyous and fulfilling, it can also feel overwhelming to teams new to the process. We developed this guide to support schools as they develop and refine their programme of inquiry.

Creating your first POI: 

In Part I, we look at what you need to get started and share a step-by-step process your team can use to create a brand new POI.

Refining your POI:

In Part II, we define 3 different types of curriculum review and give you all the tools and processes you need to confidently review and update your curriculum.

In this resource, you will:

  • Get a cheat sheet of what is required in your POI
  • Access a step-by-step guide for developing a year one outline
  • Explore 3 types of curriculum review with tips and things to consider
  • Check out Toddle’s sample POI with fully articulated units, assessments, and learning experiences
