May - July

Tasks to complete during the end of the school year as a MYP coordinator

Administrative

  • Organise a graduation celebration for Year 5 MYP students going into the Diploma Programme (DP).

  • It may be worthwhile to have preparatory exams in DP style conditions for MYP Year 5 students if your school does not do eAssessment or any other standardised test for MYP Year 5 students. This can be achieved with AssessPrep and ManageBac’s two-way integration.

  • With the leadership team prepare gifts or videos for teachers that are leaving the school.

Staff

  • Work with teachers to prepare a summer packet of work for the students to get them ready for next year’s material.

  • Ensure that leaving teachers have given their teaching materials either to you or the curriculum leads for next year’s new teachers

  • Prepare an end of year event calendar for teachers so they know special events such as end of year concerts or sports days. Teachers can then be prepared for disruption to classes.

Parents

  • Prepare a transition workshop for incoming MYP parents.

  • Talk with parents about the importance of working with their children over summer to avoid the 'summer slump'.

Students

  • Organise a 'Transition Day' where students move up to MYP.

  • Transition the students into their next year levels and have a workshop for students doing the personal/community project next year, so that they can get started researching in the summer.
