PYP (Grades 1-5)

The Program of Inquiry (POI) serves as a framework for the curriculum and illustrates the major concepts that students will be exploring. It consists of six units per grade level in grades 1 through 5. These units help students gain an understanding of themselves and the world around them. Our school collaboratively developed the programme of inquiry to reflect the unique aspects of NOVA’s community. For more details on the units in each grade level, please see below.

NOVA International Schools is a candidate school* for the PYP. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy- a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education- that we believe is important for our students.

Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB a
