The document discusses the key elements of a PYP (Primary Years Programme) curriculum. It explains that a PYP curriculum is transdisciplinary and inquiry-based, with learning organized through units of inquiry addressed in a programme of inquiry. Each unit explores a central idea through lines of inquiry and allows students to investigate globally significant issues. The document also notes that PYP schools ensure learning is engaging, relevant, challenging, significant, constructivist, concept-based, and involves taking responsible action. It describes how the programme of inquiry and unit planners synthesize the essential elements and create connections between the written, taught, and assessed curriculum.

REVIEWING UNIT PLANNERS
The PYP promotes a balance between the acquisition of essential knowledge and skills, development of conceptual understanding, demonstration of positive attitudes, and taking of responsible action. Students are invited to inquire into, and learn about, globally significant issues in the context of units of inquiry, each of which addresses a central idea relevant to a particular transdisciplinary theme with lines of inquiry that provide the opportunities for students to explore the scope of the central idea for each unit. These units collectively constitute the schools programme of inquiry. (MTPYPH page 12) The programme of inquiry and the subject scope and sequences are components of the curriculum, which when used together, define a coherent curriculum. The PYP unit planner is the instrument designed to synthesize the 5 essential elements and strengthen the connections between the written, taught and assessed curriculum. Overview
