Oakleigh Grammar celebrates IB MYP Evaluation success

·

Oakleigh Grammar has announced the successful completion of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) Evaluation, which affirmed the school’s strong implementation of the globally recognised programme and its ongoing commitment to educational excellence.

The extensive evaluation process, which was facilitated by the School’s IB MYP Coordinator, Guanghua Wu, and other staff from the Middle School, highlighted Oakleigh Grammar’s dedication to delivering a holistic and inclusive education, underpinned by its core values and cultural heritage.

Commendations were made for the school’s balanced curriculum, its student wellbeing focus, and the rich opportunities it provides for academic growth, leadership, and global citizenship.

Since becoming an IB World School for the MYP in 2015, Oakleigh Grammar has developed a thriving programme for Years 6 to 9. Over the past decade, it has become a cornerstone of the school’s educational offering — fostering inquiry-based learning, intercultural understanding, and student agency.

The report also acknowledged the school’s strategic efforts to meet the diverse needs of learners through the implementation of the Oakleigh Grammar Teaching and Learning Model and a variety of innovative programs including the Arrowsmith Program, The Leader in Me, Service learning, and a vibrant co-curricular calendar.

“I am delighted with the release of the final evaluation report,” Principal Mark Robertson said. “It demonstrates significant progress of student outcomes for the IB Middle Years Programme.”

With a multicultural student body representing over 40 different cultures, the MYP also supports the development of intercultural awareness, ethical leadership, and reflective thinking — delivering students a global education with a local impact. 

Oakleigh Grammar delivers a values-aligned education that blends academic rigour with personal growth. The programme mirrors the school’s values — Humility, Aspiration, Respect, and Kindness (HARK) — and cultivates a lifelong “Zest for Life” in every learner.
