How would we measure success
We would measure the success of our students in four realms:
1 Numeracy and Literacy
Numeracy and Literacy
We proudly follow Canadian curriculum and will work to improve the educational outcomes of our kids in Alberta syllabus.
2 Motivation to Excel
Motivation to Excel
Our aim is to motivate kids to be ambitious – to aim for lofty goals, to delay instant gratification for better longer-term professional outcomes.
3 Cognitive Awareness
Cognitive Awareness
A key to success in the real world is to develop reflective thinking, an inward-looking perspective and constructively taking divergent views to come up with better and agreeable solutions
4 Mental
Acuity
Mental Acuity
We would work to improve the imaginative ability of kids both in numeracy and literacy to better assimilate divergent thought patterns.
How would we achieve the above goals
Through our Golden Triangle Approach(c)
Academic Excellence:
For the achievments of Numeracy and Literacy, Motivation to Excel, Mental Acuity
1. Steam
Achievements in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics – Our dedicated staff will work with students to help them in reading, and organizing several pieces of deeply embedded information from a text or graph; In mathematics, they will be capable of advanced mathematical thinking and reasoning. In science, our kids would use abstract scientific ideas or concepts to explain unfamiliar and more complex phenomena and events. In Science, young learners will experience deep learning due to hands-on activities and by integrating real-world experiences with newly learned concepts.
2. Creativity and Innovation
In traditional civilizations of pre-modern era, mode of learning had been on narrating stories, building castles, drawing pictures, learning to share, collective learning. While today, more and more children are made to spend time practicing phonics,
memorizing math flashcards etc. our view is that in a continually evolving world, creativity and innovation still hold the key to success. Our curriculum will allow students to imagine and create their own projects, work on those projects with other kids, and reflect on their experiences.
3. Practicing Mindfulness

How would we report progress
We will use CBE report card system to report on kids progress. This would enable parents to review the progress of
their kids in a consistent manner.
