Pan-Asia International School is extremely proud to be a member of the IB MYP & DP world-wide community. PAIS completed its MYP verification in May 2020. PAIS now offers a complete MYP & DP program for our students from grades 6 to 12.
IB World Schools share a common philosophy- a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education- that we believe is important for our students.
* Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted.
Building on the academic success of our IB Diploma Programme since 2010, we are excited to announce that Pan-Asia International School’s candidacy for the Middle Years Programme (MYP) has been accepted. Pan- Asia International School is recognized as an IB candidate school for the MYP. Our school is pursuing authorization to offer this programme. Once authorized, we will be joining over 4000 IB World schools worldwide. These are schools that share a common philosophy with PAIS in their commitment to high quality, challenging, international education.
The IB Middle Years Programme (IB MYP) is designed for students between the ages of 11 and 16, grades 6 to 10, at PAIS. The IB MYP provides academic challenge and develops the life skills appropriate to this age group.
The programme model shows a holistic framework for international education in which learning transcends the boundaries of traditional disciplines by fostering interdisciplinary understanding.

The IB MYP spans the Middle School (Grades 6-8) and High School (Grades 9-10) years at PAIS. Students will study courses from eight subject groups and will make connections between subjects through interdisciplinary units.
