Plan and facilitate engaging parent workshops, orientation sessions and information evenings that build community understanding of PYP pedagogy and student learning milestones.

Plan and facilitate professional development during staff meetings, team planning time and faculty in-service days to elevate research-based practice.

Serve as the Primary School’s liaison with the IBO, ensuring regulatory compliance, authorization/evaluation success and regional network connections.
