What Lessons Focus On: The Four MYP Science Criteria
Knowing and understanding
Explaining scientific ideas and using them to solve problems, in situations that are familiar and ones that are not.
Inquiring and designing
Turning a question into a testable hypothesis, choosing what to change and measure, and planning a fair investigation.
Processing and evaluating
Presenting and interpreting data, then judging how well the results support the hypothesis and how the method could improve.
Reflecting on the impacts of science
Discussing how science is used to address a real issue and what follows from using it, in clear scientific language with sources.
Courses We Support
The two stages of MYP science, and the courses we support in each.
| Years 1 to 3 | Years 4 and 5 | |
|---|---|---|
| Courses we support | Integrated sciences, usually taught as one course | Integrated sciences, biology, chemistry and physics |
| Who sets the course | Your school, with its own units | Your school, which decides which sciences it offers |
| How it is assessed | In school, against the four criteria | In school, against the four criteria |
| External exam | None | In Year 5, one 2-hour on-screen exam for each science entered, if your school enters students |
| What our lessons focus on | The skills behind the four criteria, step by step | The same skills, with the depth each science needs |
What’s Included
Every lesson is planned around your school’s units, your child’s level and the work ahead.
Built on the four criteria
Practice on the skills behind Criteria A to D, with extra time on B, C and D, the criteria that can feel most unfamiliar.
Investigations and lab reports
Help turning a question into a testable hypothesis, planning a fair method and evaluating the results. The work always stays your child’s own.

Questions About MYP Tutoring
Which science courses do you support?
MYP sciences in Years 1 to 5. In Years 1 to 3 that is usually one integrated science course. In Years 4 and 5 schools offer biology, chemistry and physics, integrated sciences, or a mix, and we support all four.
How are MYP sciences assessed?
Your school assesses each student against four criteria, each marked from 0 to 8: A, Knowing and understanding; B, Inquiring and designing; C, Processing and evaluating; and D, Reflecting on the impacts of science. The four marks combine into a final grade from 1 to 7. Criteria B, C and D are the ones that most often feel unfamiliar, and they are where one-to-one lessons help most.
Can you help with practical investigations and lab reports?
Yes. In MYP sciences, Criteria B and C assess how a student plans an investigation and then processes and evaluates the results. Your teacher can help you turn a question into a testable hypothesis, plan a fair method, present and interpret data and evaluate what went well. The work must be your own, so we guide the process and never write it for you.
Does my child sit an exam?
Not in Years 1 to 3: those years are assessed in school. In Year 5, schools choose whether to enter students for the IB’s on-screen eAssessment, which has one 2-hour exam for each science entered. If your school enters your child, your teacher plans lessons around that.
How much is a session?
MYP science lessons are €80 per hour until December 31, 2026, and €85 per hour from January 1, 2027. Every lesson is a personalized one-to-one session with your teacher.
