Critical, Adaptive and Inventive Thinking

CAIT in Action!

At Orchid Park, we firmly believe in equipping our students with the values, knowledge, skills and dispositions to navigate and thrive in the future.

In an increasingly BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible) world, we empower our students to be adaptable, resilient and critical thinkers.  Through our focus on Critical, Adaptive and Inventive Thinking (CAIT), we prepare our students to embrace change, solve complex problems and contribute meaningfully to the community.

CAIT skills enable students to use sound reasoning and critical thinking to inform decision-making, generate novel and useful ideas to address challenges, and manage complexities and ambiguities to adapt to changing situations.
