At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, we deliver the very best of Canadian bilingual education through a world-class learning experience that prepares our students to thrive in life within a globalized world.
We began operations in 2024 with the mission of offering a student-centered learning system within a safe, protected, and stimulating environment, preparing students for university and professional success while instilling in them a passion for lifelong learning.
Our vision is to provide high-quality bilingual immersion education, based on Canadian methodology, philosophy, and best practices, while meeting the expectations of our families and complying with the regulations set by the Ministry of Education.
At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, our greater purpose is to empower students to build a better world. We achieve this through values that guide us every day: empathy to understand others’ perspectives, reflect, act, and build positive connections; excellence to always do our best and exceed expectations; commitment to go beyond our responsibilities; and creativity to challenge patterns and embrace Canadian educational principles by working collaboratively, valuing differences, making decisions, and learning with passion.
Today, we are part of an educational institution with more than 20 years of experience, 450 schools in 37 countries, and 66,000 students enrolled worldwide confirming that we are truly an international and multicultural institution.
At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, we are fortunate to have two groups of outstanding educators. The first is the Maple Bear Faculty, composed of a prestigious team of Canadian educators responsible for developing our exclusive and specialized curriculum and continuously updating materials to reflect the latest Canadian research and educational practices. Each year, they visit our school to train and support our local teachers in implementing the program, while also serving as Quality Assessors to ensure that Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay meets the highest standards of excellence.
The second group is made up of dedicated teachers who work with students on a daily basis, implementing the methodology in the classroom. All of them have strong professional training, are bilingual, bring valuable teaching experience, and possess the unique qualities and character required to work effectively with students of different ages.
Being a Maple Bear student opens doors to a world of extraordinary opportunities. We offer a high-quality international education that prepares students for the global job market. Our bilingual and multicultural training enables them to communicate with confidence, connect with diverse cultures, and build valuable international networks that will advance their careers.
Students at Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay become curious individuals with a passion for learning, confident in their potential and capable of shaping their own path. They are analytical, flexible, and creative, prepared to solve problems in practical ways. We foster a global citizenship mindset, equipping them with the knowledge and tools to excel at university, in their careers, and in life—whether at home or abroad.
The families of Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay come from diverse backgrounds, united by the desire for a premium, modern bilingual education within safe environments that foster in their children the skills required to excel in the challenges of the 21st century, such as critical thinking, technological adaptability, and multidisciplinary project work.
It is a committed and active community that feels deep pride and satisfaction in seeing their children achieve exceptional accomplishments, elevating their social status and recognition within their environment. The investment and sacrifices they make are reflected in the positive results and the integral development their children experience. This commitment builds a legacy with high social impact and strengthens their family’s reputation within the community.
At Maple Bear, we believe that Canadian education creates positive change in the world by preparing future leaders with critical thinking, a strong sense of social justice, and the profile of true global citizens. As part of this commitment, Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay integrates social responsibility and community service into the curriculum, along with various initiatives ranging from donations to educational projects that directly impact children, their families, and our society.
At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, we are always seeking strategic partnerships that enrich and strengthen our educational offerings. We collaborate closely with experts across various fields, including universities, educational platforms, publishers, and technology development, positively impacting each of our operational processes. A prime example is our valuable agreement with the Province of New Brunswick in Canada, which allows our students to graduate with a Canadian diploma in addition to their MEC certification.
Canada’s education system consistently ranks among the best in the world. In the 2022 OECD Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), Canada achieved eighth place globally and first among English-speaking countries, outperforming the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia in science, mathematics, and reading.
Canada is a global leader in bilingual education. Since the 1960s, it has established a strong academic foundation in language immersion, supported by research showing that bilingual education provides lifelong cognitive benefits.
Furthermore, Canadian education fosters key socio-emotional skills such as empathy and resilience through an inclusive curriculum and student-centered methods, prioritizing emotional well-being within a supportive learning environment.
The program offered at Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay is structured around seven main pillars and is designed to educate the child holistically: physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially. Here, every aspect of student development matters, and we are committed to creating experiences that inspire curiosity and a love for learning.
We place the student at the center of everything as an active and autonomous individual, taking ownership of their own learning through experimentation and discovery, guided by teachers who understand their reality and act as mentors or coaches.
We prioritize the development of socio-emotional skills and the overall well-being of our students. We foster empathy, resilience, and collaboration within a safe and welcoming environment. Our students learn to manage their emotions and regulate their behavior in an inclusive setting.
We provide bilingual immersion education using various strategies, techniques, and instructional methods to deliver content in two languages. In the early years, instruction is 100% in English, and from primary school onwards, 50% of lessons are in the students’ native language. Students do not take English classes—they learn in English.
We employ inquiry-based techniques, encouraging students through multiple approaches, including small-group discussions and guided learning. Rather than memorizing facts and materials, students learn by doing. This approach allows them to construct knowledge through exploration, experience, and discussion.
We promote outstanding play-based learning strategies, helping students develop holistically through socio-emotional learning, building confidence and motivation, and practicing cognitive skills.
We use a sophisticated set of learning resources, including books, manipulatives, visual aids, electronic media, and computer technology. These resources enrich our educational experience, allowing students to explore, interact, and learn dynamically, ensuring a deep and lasting understanding of concepts.
All our content is aligned with the challenges of the 21st century, including the need to think critically about information, adapt to constant technological changes, cope with accelerated knowledge production, engage in global integration, and manage the complexity of multidisciplinary projects, among others.
Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay features a unique and distinctive architecture that reflects our Canadian identity, complies with the regulations set by the Ministry of Education, and meets the structural and spatial standards required by the educational model we offer, including social, sports, academic, and recreational areas. Our facilities are safe, spacious, modern, engaging, and equipped with the latest materials and technology.
A classroom at Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay is unlike traditional settings; we follow the philosophy of “The Classroom as the Third Teacher”, where the environment itself becomes an active participant in the learning process. Spaces are intentionally designed to foster curiosity, exploration, and collaboration.
Open areas for group projects, corners for independent reading, displays showcasing student work, and various thematic learning centers are designed for individual or group activities, covering specific subjects such as mathematics, science, reading, and the arts.
Materials are easily accessible, sparking creativity, encouraging exploration, and enabling hands-on, participatory, student-directed learning. This philosophy complements the traditional roles of teachers and parents, creating a stimulating and supportive environment where students can thrive.
This pedagogical approach provides multiple powerful benefits, including an inspiring environment, promotion of collaboration and communication, support for diverse learning styles, facilitation of independence and responsibility, creation of a sense of community and ownership, cultural and environmental awareness, and continuous learning and adaptation, among others.
At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, we understand that extracurricular activities are essential for the holistic growth of our students and the strengthening of our community. We foster meaningful connections through initiatives such as our “Global Connections for Sustainability” program, an international project that brings together young people from around the world to collaborate on inspiring projects related to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
In addition, we offer the “Express Yourself to the World” program, where our students have the opportunity to share the richness, cultures, and traditions of our country with students from other nations, enriching their learning and broadening their horizons.
Throughout the year, we organize a variety of field trips, local and international celebrations, summer camps, and many other activities. We promote diverse artistic and social initiatives and offer seminars and masterclasses for our families and teachers, creating a space for active collaboration in the educational journey.
These transformative experiences not only nurture students’ curiosity and creativity but also build a vibrant and dynamic environment where everyone can learn, grow, and thrive together.
At Maple Bear Surubi’i Paraguay, we take our responsibility to our students and their families very seriously. We have various initiatives, processes, and controls that allow us to define, implement, monitor, and improve our efforts to ensure the best Canadian educational practices, maintaining the academic quality required by Maple Bear Global Schools.
In addition, we participate in an excellence program that enables ongoing evaluation of our school’s operations and promotes continuous improvement and innovation in school processes. The strict quality controls we implement ensure that our educational offering delivers the high standards we set.
