The Division that Rules and Represses the Field
Unfortunately, sometimes a dangerous divide develops between students and their educators. This divide then induces rebellious behavior and a spirit governed by bitterness and lack of understanding. Education under these conditions becomes a struggle and a miserable experience for both students and educators, leading to a reduced standard of achievement. The C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ concept eliminates such occurrences by establishing a real working relationship between educators and their students based on mutual understanding and respect.

C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ School Management System
C-Pi^® recognizes that a student population is a rich pool of talent, enthusiasm, determination, and human compassion that should be empowered, entrusted, and involved in serious, organized, and coordinated work to serve the student community in and outside school. Student Empowerment™ is about students taking ownership of their education and driving it to the highest possible standards in a real working partnership that involves every student in the school and their educators.

The C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ School Management System organizes students into working units that:
· monitor and enhance academic performance
· develop educational techniques, material, software and technology
· establish and develop school management systems
· provide support and guidance in dealing with communication, disciplinary, and social problems in and outside school
· establish and engage in community and world initiatives.

C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ School Management System in Practice
Under traditional operating conditions, the management of a school is the sole responsibility of an administration of professionals. The C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ School Management System itemizes these responsibilities into very basic tasks that can be given to teams of students to perform either in partnership with school staff, or on their own after undergoing professional training by the C-Pi^® Professional Development Team.

In practice, Student Empowerment™ transforms a school's student population into a large administrative structure of students that provides drive to the instructional process, and adds value to the education provided. This presents students with a professional experience that gives them a powerful edge when applying to universities, and adds to their credentials when they enter the professional world.

Advantages of C-Pi^® Student Empowerment
Student Empowerment transforms the learning process into an enjoyable experience and creates a serious working-team environment in school between students and staff. Students develop an early maturity and a strong sense of responsibility while benefiting from a real-life work experience that cannot be acquired from a textbook or in a classroom. In essence, students enter the professional world at an early age, enhancing their communication and organizational skills, exposing and utilizing their talents; and developing their social skills all while they work towards achieving academic excellence. Student Empowerment™ creates an awareness of oneself, others, society, and the world that is invaluable to human development.

C-Pi^® Components of Student Empowerment™
Student Empowerment™ requires the full support of a school's administration and an unchallenged faith in the potential and abilities of its students. Staff training in Student Empowerment™ is essential, as is a continuous effort to create enthusiasm amongst students and demonstrate a real appreciation of their efforts at school and in the community. Parents also need to be educated about Student Empowerment™ and its functions. The C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ Package addresses these factors as components of a complete management solution.

C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ Software Products
The C-Pi^® Student Empowerment™ Program is a supporting School Management System that incorporates hundreds of students working in one or more location. It necessarily requires the use of extensive technology to monitor and coordinate its development and activities. These tools have been developed by C-Pi^® and are part of its Student Empowerment™ Program. Furthermore, C-Pi^® has developed software to aid in the traditional management needs of schools, such as the Curricula Developer, the Lesson Planner, the Automated Examination Writer, and the School Scheduler.

C-Pi^® Versatile Curriculum and Books
C-Pi^® is among the very few school management operators to have developed its own International Curricula and accompanying Book Series to serve the world markets. Student-oriented in essence and versatile in structure, these have been designed to suit local market needs without losing focus of the basics of child development and international college preparatory requirements. This guarantees high-school graduates the highest possible level of academic preparation for post-secondary education at top colleges and universities around the world.
