MYP Grade 10 Personal Project Exhibition
The Grade 10 Personal Project is a defining element of the Middle Years Programme (MYP), designed to encourage students to become independent learners, critical thinkers, and reflective problem-solvers. As the culminating project of the MYP, it allows students to explore an area of personal interest while developing the research, organisation, and self-management skills that prepare them for future academic challenges.
Each student began by identifying a topic they were passionate about and setting both a learning goal and a product goal. Throughout the process, students created success criteria, conducted research, managed timelines, and reflected on their progress as they worked towards producing a final outcome. The project concluded with a written report that captured their journey, including the challenges they faced, the skills they developed, and the learning that took place along the way.
This year’s exhibition showcased an inspiring variety of projects that reflected the individuality, creativity, and ambition of our students. From artistic creations to practical innovations, each project demonstrated dedication, curiosity, and personal growth.
We invite you to watch the video below, which showcases the diversity of this academic year’s projects.
