Inquiry-Based Learning

Learning Through Questions

At the International School of Morocco, learning is guided by curiosity. Our IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) uses inquiry as the foundation of teaching, encouraging pupils to ask questions, explore ideas, and build their own knowledge.

What We Offer

  • Student-Led Questions: Pupils take ownership of their learning by asking meaningful questions.

  • Transdisciplinary Themes: Big ideas that connect subjects like science, language, and social studies.

  • Hands-On Exploration: Research, experiments, projects, and presentations.

  • Teacher as Guide: Educators support students with structure and resources, while encouraging independence.

The ISM Difference

Our inquiry-based approach helps pupils to:

  • Become independent and motivated learners

  • Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills

  • Make connections across subjects and real-world contexts

  • Build confidence in asking questions and seeking answers
