MYP Service and Action encourages students to plan their service activities and to engage in meaningful and authentic service as action that contributes to their community, defined as their school, neighborhood, city, country or the world. Grade 6 to 8 students plan a class-initiated service as action that originates from, and integrates with, their curricular studies, and evolves from a school-related initiative to a community-based project, changing from a teacher-led to a student-led initiative. In Grade 9, students work in small groups to identify and plan for service as action initiatives that arise from their learning in class. In Grade 10, students either work independently or in small groups to initiate service as action plans that result from their studies.
