3 WHO WE ARE Our Mission Stratford Hall educates students to the highest global standards, through the programmes of the International Baccalaureate. Excellence and confidence are developed through a challenging academic curriculum with further emphasis on creativity, action and service. We foster a strong pluralistic community built on integrity and respect. Our Vision Stratford Hall strives to be a global leader in the International Baccalaureate community. Our students will gain a deep understanding of the world around them, and they will act on their connections to the outside community. They will excel to the best of their abilities, and graduates will be equipped to achieve their chosen goals. This is accomplished by acquiring and retaining the best teachers, and by a commitment to a balanced and enriched curriculum. The success of Stratford Hall is deeply rooted in the establishment of a supportive, knowledgeable and committed community. Internationalism at Stratford Hall At Stratford Hall, we agree that global citizenship is an integral part of education. To be a global citizen is to understand and promote basic human rights, to know the nature of our physical and social world, and to be aware that our actions impact others and the planet. This goal is best accomplished by knowing ourselves and knowing our place in the world through the cultural backgrounds of all members of our community. Through this knowledge, we strive for a level of empathy that will direct our actions. Pluralism At Stratford Hall Stratford Hall endeavors to be a pluralistic community that goes beyond just being diverse, instead taking our diversity and doing something with it. Beyond tolerance and acknowledgement lies pluralism; a place where we not only live around people of different cultures, but also actively learn from, appreciate, and incorporate their different communities, beliefs, and histories into our everyday lives and understandings of the world around us. It is being open and accepting to ideas and cultures without necessarily losing your own beliefs in an attempt to foster a school culture and climate in which all community members feel safe, accepted and respected. International Baccalaureate Mission Statement The International Baccalaureate Organization aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end, the IBO works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right. 3

4 GOALS GOALS OF THE INTERNATIONAL TRIPS PROGRAM To foster global mindedness and intercultural understanding To foster personal growth To foster language development To be an extension of the classroom To provide unique and meaningful opportunities for service learning Please note: The safety and security of all destinations will be closely monitored prior to the date of departure to ensure the trip is within an acceptable level of risk tolerance for our Board of Governors. 4

7 RISK MANAGEMENT RISK MANAGEMENT Supervision Service Providers Accommodation Ground Transportation Homestays Informed Consent The number of supervisors (Stratford Hall teachers) depends on the nature of the trip, the number and qualifications of guides and hosts, the age of the students and the number of participants. In all cases there will be at least two Stratford Hall staff assigned to any international trip, and they will be responsible for all supervision. Where possible, one of the supervising teachers will have participated in the trip previously. The cost for the supervising teachers is included in the overall trip cost. All international trips are approved by the Board of Governors. All service providers carry adequate insurance and have been vetted by the international trips planning committee and school administration. They have experience in hosting groups of high school students and are well-reputed in the educational tour industry in Vancouver. Accommodation types range depending on the trip: from homestays, hotels, 2 star hostels, school facilities, to rustic cabin style accommodation. All accommodations maintain a high standard of cleanliness and comfort for students. Separation of boys and girls is strictly enforced. Ground transportation is organized by tour providers using well-reputed chartered buses and drivers in combination with public transportation. Homestay families are screened, in advance, by tour providers and are provided with a list of expectations, guidelines and rules related to hosting a Canadian student. Oftentimes, the host-families work regularly with the same tour provider each year to establish trust and forge relationships over the long-term. Families must sign a homestay contract that outlines parameters, rules, and guidelines for hosting an international student. Each trip handbook contains a comprehensive informed consent form which details all of the potential risks of any activities students are engaging while on an international trip. Families always have the option to opt out of certain activities, particularly those relating to adventure travel activities such as zip lining or surfing etc. 7

8 RISK MANAGEMENT Student Preparation Communication Systems Emergency Medical Services Staff Training Best Practices and Standards Trip groups will meet regularly with individual trip coordinators in the months and weeks leading up to the trip. During this time, the coordinators will discuss the itinerary in detail and provide comprehensive packing lists to ensure students have adequate clothing and equipment to be safe and comfortable in the environments they are travelling. Students will get sufficient notice for any immunizations or visas that are necessary for travel to the country. Parents will be provided with a list of contact numbers so that students can be reached in a case of emergency. Teacher chaperones will carry a list of up-to-date emergency contacts for each student in a case where we must contact parents/guardians during travel. Each tour provider must supply the school with a safety plan that details access to first aid and Emergency medical services in the country of travel. Before chaperoning a trip, staff must read the International Trips Teacher Manual and attend regular meetings with the Risk Management coordinator to highlight the risks associated with international travel with high school students and learn the lines of communication in place in the case of emergency. Stratford Hall adheres to the best practices and follows guidelines outlined by the ISABC. Additionally, we comply with standards of St. John s Ambulance, The Canadian Red Cross and Country Travel Advice and Advisories from the Government of Canada. 8
