Why Inspiration Private School is the Pathway to University?
This week we celebrate the success of our students, many of whom have received elite university offers after having graduated from our program. Each has found their own path, understanding their own personalities and strengths. Like all of us, they have their weaknesses, and our academic team has ensured that their barriers are breached and cannot stop them from reaching their dreams. We know that when we believe in our students, they give themselves permission to believe in their future.
How Does It Work?
Our students are given a comprehensive, holistic assessment prior to starting classes with us. This involves going over report cards, executing a battery on in-house tests, and relying on the expert opinions of our academic staff. Rather than falling through the cracks, they are under the supervision of a cohesive team that shares information and ensures that the parents are aware of what is going on. This ensures that problems are identified and dealt with in a timely manner, not building up and manifesting later on. We address these issues in a kind and compassionate manner, communicated from a vantage point of trust and assurance. Our students know that they are in good hands and are not scared to make mistakes as they will have the guidance needed to develop planning, whether remedial for the purposes of future enrichment. That is why our program can help students on every side of every spectrum, from gifted right through to those with IEPs.
What is an IEP?
An IEP is an individualised education plan that is used throughout the academic world, in both public and private institutions. In the public system, they are usually given to students who are above or below the standardised threshold and generated in order to suit the student’s specific needs. This means that the average student is lumped in with the rest and not afforded any sort of specialised care. Here at Inspiration, we consider every student unique and we tailor our resources around them. This approach is highly effective but very demanding, requiring that we limit the amount of students in each class. In the best case scenario, the student works one-on-one with a teacher and has the curriculum geared to their specific profile. Of course, not all schools can offer this but for those who do, the rewards are overwhelming. Not only can they absorb the material faster, they can also develop their unique career interests and get individualised guidance about their plans for the road ahead.
What Makes Inspiration Unique?
While some schools invest in brick and mortar, we invest in our teachers and other academic staff. Professional rooted in both the scholarly and “experience-based” domains, they are able to leverage the best of the Eastern and Western teaching methodologies. This allows students to prepare for rigorous academic tests while developing their critical thinking and communication skills. Rather than being just one of many, our students are given individualised attention not offered anywhere. Rather than parents making choices by chance, our team takes full control over their education and maps the steps needed to reach their goals. From volunteer placement to extracurriculars to developing their portfolios, our students are afforded opportunities that sow for future harvest.
What’s Next?
While theory is helpful, the best thing to do is to drop by for a complimentary assessment. This will tell you exactly where your child is (in terms of placement relative to their peers) and what is required to reach their dreams. Whether it is getting into the University of Toronto, Harvard-or any other prestigious institution-we are experts at what we do and we are excited to learn about your family’s academic dreams. We have thirteen learning centres across Canada and we accept admissions year-round.
