Pamoja Taught courses are authorised by the IB, and promote student responsibility and success.
How does Pamoja Taught work?
Global collaboration
Students use our online platform to access content at any time, and interact with Pamoja teachers and other students from around the world via live lessons, messaging, discussion forums and journals.
Teacher support
Student engagement, activities and submission of assignments are tracked by Pamoja teachers to provide support at the point it is needed.
Progress monitoring
Schools designate a member of staff to be our first point of contact to keep track of student progress, and provide face-to-face support if needed.
Dedicated support
Students benefit from one-to-one contact with experienced IB teachers who are trained in digital learning strategies. A trained Site-based Coordinator at the students’ school regularly monitors student progress and provides additional face-to-face support.
This video will guide you through how IB Diploma Programme students use the Pamoja Taught learning platform on a day-to-day basis throughout the duration of their two-year courses. You will discover how our online tools enable learners to collaborate with their teachers and classmates both synchronously and asynchronously, how to make the best use of our IB-authorised course content and resources, and where to access our global support network.

Meeting IB standards
Pamoja Taught courses are written by subject matter experts and authorised by the International Baccalaureate. They cover the same course content and prepare students for the same assessments as traditional face-to-face IB DP courses. You can be confident that courses meet IB standards and learning outcomes, as well as being fit for purpose for an online environment.
Flexible learning and face-to-face support: the Pamoja Taught experience
We met with Pamoja student and Global Student Council member Kaymin (Kay) and his father, Wayne Burnett, in Singapore in March 2018. Kay shared his experience of taking two Pamoja Taught courses; he explained how he benefits from the flexibility of learning online and enjoys the intercultural classroom environment.
Wayne told us that he has no worries about his son being taught online, as the Site-based Coordinator in school monitors Kay’s progress and gives him any face-to-face support he might need to ensure a successful learning experience.
