GOSHEN VALLEY - A PLACE OF ABUNDANCE AND GROWTH.

Goshen Valley, a combination of Goshen, symbolizing refuge and prosperity in biblical tradition, and Valley, representing a fertile space for development, embodies a rich and safe educational environment. This name reflects a philosophy of learning where every student finds the nourishing ground for intellectual and personal growth. Like a valley that offers protection while encouraging flourishing, Goshen Valley is a sanctuary of knowledge, a place where students are nurtured and supported to fully thrive.

A HIGH-END ANGLOPHONE SCHOOL IN ANTANANARIVO

GOSHEN VALLEY, as the sister institution of GOSHEN SCHOOL, is managed under the same administration. While it is true that the infrastructure, materials, teaching aids, and environment differ, the core philosophy is not about which approach is better. Instead, it represents a different educational philosophy: the anglophone system.

The main difference between anglophone and francophone education lies in their teaching methods and focus. Anglophone education often emphasizes practical skills, creativity, and interactive learning, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. In contrast, francophone education tends to focus on theoretical knowledge, structured learning, and a rigorous approach to academic discipline. Both systems aim to provide quality education but cater to different learning styles and cultural contexts.
