Request informationCanada
Canada is a multicultural country that has always welcomed students from all over the world with open arms. For decades it has ranked first for quality of life, thanks to public services, a low crime rate and an excellent environment.
English and French are the two official languages, and regional influences show up in architecture, music, food and religion. At the root of Canadian identity are also the traditions of Indigenous peoples, especially the Inuit. You can explore one of the most beautiful and varied natural environments on Earth, from the great prairies to the Rocky Mountains.
The school system
The Canadian system offers many training options and guarantees very high standards across every province. Most schools require eight subjects a year (four per semester), chosen by the student and ranging from the technical to the literary.
Canada is divided into school districts, within which towns and cities of every size are located.

What they say about us
“The school welcomed me not as a foreigner but as a girl who couldn't wait to try things. I was helped and backed up by classmates, teachers and school leaders so I could get the most out of it. My school was the most surprising part of my experience abroad — it gave me a new perspective on everything.”
