Life-Learners Canada's goal is for every student to graduate as a life learner, equipped with life skills we frequently find ourselves learning later in life to compete for skilled jobs. We know the industry is changing, and they need highly trained individuals. More importantly, they require teams with life skills such as relationship building, community living & development, empathy & compassion, healthy lifestyle skills, etc.

We've been doing the same thing for over a hundred-fifty years now, and we've forgotten to ask why or if it's even relevant today. We need to change and strip ourselves of our current old system we are conditioned to apply. Past changes and reforms are always in a vacuum.

We need life skills to be fused into the teaching and learning, so it becomes part of our educational philosophy. Our most precious gifts are our children, who need the tools and skills for future success. So, when is NOW the right time for a change?

"The future is not something we enter. The future is something we create." Leonard I Scott - Theologian.

Life-Learners Canada follows the Four Principles of Education which are:

• Knowledge - This is the umbrella of the principles. It is a constant throughout our education and beyond. We are creating and inspiring life learners in our pedagogy of life skills.
• Action - The first in our ABCs. This represents experiential education, where learners take a hands-on approach based on their learning interests. Teachers allow students to try and reinvent the solution before providing any solution.
• Being - Our second of the ABCs is about introspection. Students need to understand themselves as a growth process through their grades. Mindfulness and self-awareness open them up to compassion and empathy.
• Community - This is about utilizing the ABCs and life skills pedagogy to build relationships with classmates, schoolmates, and the community of schools in a zone or district and New Brunswick for English, French, and Indigenous students. We learn together. This will also extend more frequently with friends from many countries and cultures. Pairing up more experienced students with less experience who learn the same way and have some of the same interests. This creates leadership and relationship skills and a sense of empowerment.
