Transdisciplinary Themes
in the IB Primary Years Programme at Wade King
What are the transdisciplinary themes?
Below is an overview of each transdisciplinary theme, along with their definitions. If you would also like to see all the units of inquiry within each theme, please have a look at our Wade King Program of Inquiry for 2022-23 (link here). Our Program of Inquiry (or POI, as it is frequently referred to) lays out all of the units of inquiry taught across the school, and is categorized by the transdisciplinary themes.

An inquiry into the nature of the self; beliefs and values; personal, physical, mental, social and spiritual health; human relationships including families, friends, communities, and cultures; rights and responsibilities; what it means to be human.
