Maple Bear schools offer full Canadian bilingual teaching methodologies and strategies utilizing Canadian and local curriculum.
The Canadian methodology emphasizes discovery, experimentation, and problem-solving, fostering curiosity and real-world application. At Maple Bear, education is designed to engage students in thought-provoking activities that encourage them to explore their surroundings and connect learning with their daily lives. This approach makes education relevant and enjoyable.
Mistakes are seen as valuable learning opportunities, creating an environment where students feel confident and supported. By shifting away from traditional methods of memorizing facts, the focus is on guiding students to develop critical skills and competencies essential for navigating the modern world, where access to information is readily available through technology.
This innovative approach prepares students to think independently, adapt, and thrive in a constantly evolving global landscape.
What is PISA?
The Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) is one of the world’s most respected benchmarks for evaluating educational systems. Organized by the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development), it measures the performance of 15-year-olds in key areas such as reading, math, and science every three years.
Canada’s Outstanding Performance
Since PISA began in 2000, Canada consistently ranks in the top 10 globally across all domains. Unlike rankings based on isolated pockets of excellence, PISA evaluates an entire nation’s education system, making Canada’s performance a reflection of the high standards accessible to students nationwide.
Canada outperforms countries like the United States and the United Kingdom, thanks to its highly equitable public education system. All children, regardless of geography or socioeconomic background, have access to quality schools.
Bilingual Education Leadership
In addition to academic excellence, Canada is internationally recognized as a leader in bilingual education, fostering fluency in both English and French through proven methodologies.
Why This Matters for Your Child
As a Maple Bear school, we align with the Canadian education system’s high standards and inclusive approach. Our bilingual, student-focused learning environment draws on the same practices that have earned Canada its PISA distinction, ensuring your child is prepared for a globally competitive future.
Canada has been at the forefront of integrating 21st-century skills into education since 1994. This innovative approach focuses on equipping students with the critical competencies needed for a future of unknown challenges and opportunities.
According to the Institute for the Future (IFTF), over 85% of the jobs that will exist in 2030 have not yet been invented. In such a dynamic labor market, adaptability is key. Schools must shift from traditional rote learning to fostering skills that empower students to learn continuously and creatively adapt to change.
Canada’s “learn to learn” methodology ensures children develop a lifelong passion for acquiring knowledge. By nurturing curiosity, creativity, and resilience, Canadian education prepares students to navigate a world defined by change and complexity.
At Maple Bear, we embrace these proven methodologies, providing your child with the tools to thrive in an ever-evolving global environment.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) identifies a set of 12 Skills (Skills of the 21st Century) divided in three groups.
