The Maple Bear Way
To suit varying levels of ambition, investment capacity, and local market needs, Maple Bear has created three standard school models: Kindergarten, Kindergarten + Elementary School, and K-12 School.

Maple Bear around the world
Maple Bear franchisees come from diverse backgrounds, each bringing a unique story, experience, and skill set. Regardless of their starting point, they share a common journey: a commitment to making a meaningful impact in education, beginning with Maple Bear.
What unites them all is a shared passion for education, driven by the desire to provide high-quality bilingual learning experiences for future generations.
We decided two years ago to focus on the opportunities in the education sector with our new division called Vantage Best in Class. We are delighted that our plans have lived up to the name. The partnership with Maple Bear is indeed ‘Best in Class’ and together we will undoubtedly become the leaders in premium bilingual education in a region of over 250 million people.”
In order to be successful nowadays, having a strong partner and a team you can rely on is crucial. This is what made me choose Maple Bear. I was impressed by the Canadian methodology, by the child centered teaching that leaves no one behind, as well as the power of the network. I am happy to bring to the children of Belgrade the Maple Bear language immersion classroom in a safe environment, which will not only grow them bilingual but will help them develop better, more complex, and will boost the 21st century skills that are so important nowadays. With the strong support of the local Maple Bear CEE operational team and the Canadian Academic team, I am sure our Maple Bear Kindergarten in Belgrade will be a success!
Joining Maple Bear means becoming part of a global community committed to excellence in education and long-term success.
