WHY
CANADA?

私たちは歴史上極めて重要な瞬間にいます。

International Comprehensiveでは、教育が世界をより良い場所にするのに役立つと信じています。世界中の学生と教育者が人生のあらゆる面で成功するための準備をするということは、生涯にわたる能力の開発に向けて学校の焦点をシフトする必要があることを意味します。

世界は急速に変化しているだけでなく、相互に関連し、予測不可能になっています。Covid-19のパンデミックは、この傾向の最も明白で最近の例です。生涯にわたる能力は、あらゆる状況に適応し、独創的で、持続可能で、創造的で、革新的で、思いやりがあり、公平な解決策を想像するための最良の資産を構成します。

International Comprehensiveは、日々の行動、思考、行動を真に導くコアバリューを共有する情熱的な個人の国際チームです。私たちは文字通り、信憑性、好奇心、創造性、信頼、誠実さ、思いやり、革新、リーダーシップ、多様性、公平性、成長というコアバリューを組織の基盤として生きています。

私たちのチームは、世界中のすべての学習者、家族、学校のニーズを満たすために、パートナーと協力することに興奮し、全力で取り組んでいます。

私たちはあなたを私たちの学習者のコミュニティに歓迎したいと思います!

Our mission
is to provide our school franchisees with
the most effective systems, methods, materials and professional development
to bring this vision to life.
