2022 START'UP LYCEE

2022 START'UP LYCEE

APRIL 01+02 | GR10 | ORT Campus


Start'Up Lycee is a group and project based program, organized annually by LFSF and designed to introduce Gr 10 students to the process of a startup launch.

As an integral part of the curriculum in Economics and Social Sciences (SES), Start'Up Lycee is an opportunity for students to expand the skills acquired during the school year (research, written argumentation, presentation or "pitching") and propose their own solutions to a contemporary issue. This is a chance for them to practice their skills in a practical way, and to prepare for their higher education and eventually for their professional future. 

The theme, this year, was well-being and was revealed to students on the first of the 2 day event. Students then identified a need for which they identified targets, defined the competition, thought of potential partnerships and projected expected revenues.

Teams were coached and evaluated by professionals (some are LFSF Parents). 

All students were really impressive and gave high quality presentations to the Grand Jury. Congratulations to them all!

Gr8 students working hard to defend their arguments

What do you do when there is no easy answer? When an issue is too complex to be settled by a simple debate, with winners on one side and losers on the other? This is the challenge at the heart of cartographie des controverses (the mapping of controversies), a pedagogical approach that our students have been exploring this year through a compelling real-world topic: the exploitation of the Arctic.
