“Ok! Now you’re the coordinator. Good luck!”
​That is almost what I was told when I was appointed a coordinator. I had no idea what it really meant and on top of that, we had an evaluation visit coming that year! I had to figure everything on my own, but thankfully I had help from many people from all around the world, especially via Facebook.
I decided to start this website and blog to document my learning journey and help anyone who may come across it.
ABOUT THE BLOG
This website is intended to help new Primary Years Programme (PYP) coordinators, especially those in the early years, gain inspiration and understanding of the nternational Baccalaureate Organization (IB) and the PYP.
I hope it will be a starting point and reference for new PYP coordinators, just as I wish I had when I started in 2020.
What I write here is the result of my own experience, research, and trial and error, and I hope it will help you in your journey as an early-years PYP coordinator.
