Middle Years Programme

The Aga Khan Academy Dhaka is an authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) World School offering the Middle Years Programme (MYP).Our MYP curriculum for students in Grades 6-10 is part of an integrated curriculum that forms a continuum from the Primary Years Programme (Grades 1-5) to the Diploma Programme (Grades 11-12). 

Students study a broad and balanced range of disciplines, including: 

• Languages;
• Literature;
• Sciences;
• Social sciences;
• Mathematics;
• Ats;
• Technology; and
• Physical education. 

The five Aga Khan Curricular Strands, which are unique to the Aga Khan Academies, are integrated throughout the curriculum.

Learning in the middle years

Our MYP students are immersed in a challenging and enriching educational environment. We ensure they master basic skills, develop the ability to analyse and think critically and become computer literate. We also emphasise the development of self-discipline and good work habits.

The programme encourages students to reflect on their learning and make connections with real-world issues. It also helps students develop an awareness of their thought processes and learning strategies, and of how they learn best.

The curriculum includes a service component that makes students aware of community and global needs. We also ensure that each student has a strong leadership experience and receives grounding in ethics, which helps prepare them for future leadership roles.
