About The EdVaults
The EdVaults has provided criterion-based assessment resources to MYP teachers since 2017.
The company was created in response to frustrations among teachers around the lack of guidance, support and examples for assessment creation by the International Baccalaureate (IB). Its growing task bank provides MYP teachers with multiple options for classroom assessment needs.
The platform initially focused on MYP Mathematics and has expanded into additional subject areas, beginning with MYP Science.
