In addition to Greek, English is regarded as a basic language of instruction at our school. Our aim is not only for our students to develop critical thinking\u00a0 skills in communication and research in English, but to gain an insight into the cultural heritage, customs and perspectives of people from English-speaking communities. The teaching of the language takes place according to the principles of the MYP, according to which students use the language as a tool of inquiry and development of communication skills.<\/p>\n

English language skills developed in the PYP are further developed in the MYP years. More specifically, the learning objectives of the final stages of the PYP programme are in alignment with the objectives of the first phases of the MYP language acquisition programme.<\/p>\n

Students are placed in phases according to their receptive and productive skills in oral and written communication. Students continue to the next phase when they satisfactorily meet the objectives of the phase they are in.<\/p>\n

On completion of the MYP programme, students who attend classes in the green zone will be Proficient Users <\/strong>of the language, students in the purple zone Independent Users <\/strong>whereas students in the orange zone Capable Users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The final phases of the MYP programme correspond to language acquisition levels B2, C1 and C2, as defined by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. (phase 4 = B2 \/First Certificate for schools, phase 5 = C1 \/Certificate of Advanced English, phase 6 = C2 \/Certificate of Proficiency in English).<\/p>\n

The language level that the students acquire at the end of grade 10 (MYP Year 5) enables those interested to attend the IB Diploma Programme.<\/p>\n
