Prep School Baccalaureate

The private school my DD has just started attending has started following the PSB from September. Does anyone have any views or experience of the PSB framework? Why would they choose to start following it?

@NOG2014 - just seen you didn't get any replies on this. The PSB is quite well established now. It actually stands for Pre-Senior Baccalaureate. It's general aim is to prepare prep school pupils in Y7 and 8 for the wider world of senior school and particularly beyond, encouraging independent learning and a much broader skill set than is achieved just with the linear and quite restrictive learning of Common Entrance. There's a lot of info on it on the website - https://www.psbacc.org/core-skills

Your prep school should be giving you more information about it if you're unclear on what it means. I think it's a great model and senior schools like it. There are quite few prep schools doing it now - around 40 I think.

*Its general aim that should say - I am more literate than my phone!
