There are currently 58,000 children studying in Maple Bear schools operating in 40 countries. Their education is based on a double: local and Canadian core curriculum, which transfers the best teaching practices and methodology of the Canadian education system, which has been considered one of the best in the world for years, to the domestic market.

A team of 200 educators from Canada has prepared a global education system whose greatest advantages are:

• bilingualism , which in our system means full immersion, thanks to which our students stay in an English-speaking environment and not only learn the language during lessons
• dual-system – they combine the Polish and Canadian core curriculum
• two teachers in the class – a small number of students in the group and the constant presence of two teachers allow for an individual approach to each child
• trained teaching staff – cyclical training and regular quality audits ensure the highest quality of learning
• developing 21st century skills – we engage, challenge and involve students in learning, placing particular emphasis on problem-solving skills that are necessary to achieve success in the 21st century.

Learning at Maple Bear, in accordance with the Canadian methodology, is based on discovery, experimentation and problem solving. Based on these principles, traditional teaching methods are replaced by an education that encourages students to examine the environment around them and seek answers to questions important to their everyday lives.
