IPC Learning Process
The IPC is an inquiry-based approach allowing children to make meaningful connections across subjects while fostering personal growth and global awareness. Subject goals in Geography, History, Science and Art build a strong foundation, while international goals encourage respect for different cultures and a sense of global citizenship.
Learning Goals
The IPC’s inquiry-based approach allows children to make meaningful connections across subjects while fostering personal growth and global awareness. Subject goals build a strong foundation in key learning areas, while international goals encourage respect for different cultures and a sense of global citizenship.
Entry Points
At the start of the unit, a special event called the Entry Point captures the children’s interest, igniting their curiosity and enthusiasm for learning. This sets the stage for the unit providing a meaningful and exciting introduction to the topic.
Knowledge Harvest
This takes place after the Entry Point. Children think about what they already know about the topic and make connections with previous learning and contemplate what they would like to learn about the new topic.
Researching & Investigating
Teachers introduce the theme by giving children an overview of the topic. Through a range of activities, children will explore and gather information, then process and record what they have learned.
Exit Point
This is a fun and engaging way to conclude the unit and reflect on what the children have learned. They may showcase their learning and understanding through presentations or projects, often inviting parents into school to share and celebrate their achievements.
“Teachers are professional and making great effort to explain and teach kids. Very in-depth preparations and variety of things to introduce IPC topics. Appreciate the way the final exit point is presented to parents. Wonderful interactions between children when older kids are supporting and helping younger children. It’s opening kids for their future ability to deal and understand other people from different cultures.”
