What Is I CAN School?

Mekong Green International School (MGIS) is the first international bilingual school in Rach Gia city whose curriculum follows the Design Thinking method and operates under the I CAN School model.

This is a progressive, humanistic educational method applied and widely taught at Stanford University, as well as a lot of schools around the world. The I CAN School model was founded by Kiran Bir Sethi, one of the top 10 educators in the world, with the aim of providing children with the necessary knowledge and skills for their joyous learning journey and sustainable development.

 

5 Reasons For Choosing The I CAN School Model

– Liberal and humanistic educational philosophy that clearly and convincingly answers the question “What type of students will this school build?”

– The operating system is packaged into professional, specific, and immediately applicable processes.

– The ability to effectively combine with any curriculum, which enhances the quality of the academic program

– All teachers are trained and achieve the T.E.T certificate- a prestigious global teacher training program founded by Dr. Thomas Gordon, who was nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize.
