Multi-programme campuses need one roster

A single IB World School might run PYP in primary, MYP in middle years, and DP in senior - each with different reporting cycles and parent expectations.

Duplicate student records per programme create fee errors and transcript gaps when families transfer between sections. One profile with programme tags keeps history intact.

Class structures map to homeroom, subject groups, and DP option blocks without forcing a single grade-only model.

PYP, MYP, and DP calendar realities

PYP units run on transdisciplinary schedules; MYP and DP follow term patterns closer to international school norms. Whole-school events still need a shared calendar for facilities and transport.

DP mock exams, IA deadlines, and EE milestones sit beside regular timetable slots. Coordinators need exam session types that do not break homeroom attendance.

Programme-specific term presets inherit a master holiday list so working-day counts stay consistent for attendance reporting.

Criterion-aligned gradebook configuration

IB assessment uses criteria and levels - not always percentage averages. Teachers need entry screens that match how they plan units, not a generic A-F grid forced from a national board product.

Publish gates control when families see summative results versus in-progress formative feedback. Historical terms archive for transcript and university reference requests.

DP subject levels and SL/HL tagging helps registrars verify exam registration lists against enrolled classes.

Admissions for internationally mobile families

IB applicants arrive mid-year with transcripts from multiple systems. Application forms capture prior programme, language profile, and visa-related document checks.

Enrollment assigns programme and grade placement; waitlists manage seat caps in DP where option blocks fill quickly.

Public track pages reduce registrar email load when relocation timelines are tight.

Fees across programmes and currencies

Tuition, capital levies, and activity fees often differ by programme. Expat families may pay in one currency while local staff salaries run in another - finance needs clear collection reporting.

Installment schedules align to term starts common in the host country. Sibling discounts apply across programmes when brothers and sisters sit in PYP and MYP simultaneously.

Online pay with PDF receipts suits families who expect self-service before calling the bursar.

Parent portals expat families actually use

Mobile-first access matters when parents travel across time zones. Fee balances, published reports, and excursion permissions should not require a desktop login.

Multi-child dashboards link siblings in different programmes under one guardian account.

Notices for IB workshops, parent conferences, and assessment weeks publish to the portal without whole-school email blasts.

Phased rollout by programme

Map academic structure to PYP, MYP, and DP sections first. Launch admissions and fees school-wide while gradebook config phases in programme by programme.

Train DP coordinators on exam session setup before mock season. Primary teams adopt attendance and family communication early where complexity is lower.

Leadership dashboards aggregate enrollment and fee KPIs across programmes for board reporting.
