Our Early Learning Centre and Junior School use the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) framework, in conjunction with the Australian Curriculum. Fostering international mindedness, our students explore local and global issues and opportunities in real-life contexts, using concept-driven, transdisciplinary inquiry as the leading vehicle for learning. At Canberra Girls Grammar School, we focus on the growth of each student’s academic, social and emotional well-being, seeking to touch hearts as well as minds.
