Founded in 1997, the mission of Lynn-Rose is to provide individually oriented, student-led instruction, challenging all to reach their potential within the core academic fields and beyond. The blend of the Ontario and International Baccalaureate (IB) curricula is a draw for the families that enrol here, as are the quality of instruction and the very porous interface between families and faculty. The math and literacy programs have students working a grade ahead of their peers in the public system, with further acceleration offered to students able to function at that level. The attention to values, including those underscored within the IB programs, is also a draw. There is a lot going on, though a close attention to the specific skills, abilities, and needs of each student—as well as a broad range of resources to address them—is a distinguishing factor of the Lynn-Rose offering.

“The academic program is rigorous in the sense that it seeks to challenge students, though rigorous, too, in the sense that it intends that students have experience across the disciplines, while also appreciating the connections between them.”
“Athletics are important at RSGC and, for a small school, it brings home more than its fair share of medals in certain sports. The boys we spoke to were keen to dispel the myth that, because RSGC is small and has fewer players to choose from, it doesn’t perform well in sports.”
“Underpinning everything at RSGC is the belief that when boys feel cared for and happy, they learn well.”

View full reportRoyal St. George’s College began as an Anglican choir school, and that tradition remains, in various ways, to this day. The entire school meets every Thursday for evensong, for example, and the houses are Canterbury, Westminster, Winchester, and York. The Royal designation was bestowed by the Queen herself at about the time of the school’s 25th anniversary. In that, and much else, this is a very traditional school, which can at times seem untouched by time and the pace of history. The choral program remains very strong, though is part of a very broad range of extracurricular programs. The school very rightly makes good use of all the cultural centres nearby, including U of T, the ROM, the AGO, and the reference library. Values, too, remain important, and are a draw for many parents who enroll their boys here, whether or not they live within the Anglican tradition.

"At Lynn-Rose School the philosophy is to create an environment that is challenging and rewarding, focusing on social, intellectual and emotional aspects of development. At LRS, your child will thrive within our rigorous academic curriculum combined with the International Baccalaureate Programmes (IB) JK-Grade 10, and Advanced Placement (AP) Grades 11-12, thus preparing and inspiring our students to become life long learners and global citizens."
"Our mission is to challenge and inspire each boy to become the best version of himself. We believe that school should be challenging and meaningful. We believe that knowledge matters; our collective future relies on us knowing more than we do today and acting purposefully on what we learn. We believe that each boy should be known and loved and that learning takes place within relationships. We believe that boys can be good and ambitious at the same time. They should be held to a high standard. Sometimes, pushing our boys to be more, do more, and act more thoughtfully and courageously, is the most loving thing we can do as adults. We believe in character and in doing the right thing. We believe in caring for one another, in integrity, and putting others before ourselves. We continue to be inspired by our founders, who insisted that "Manners Maketh Men." This is our code. We are Georgians."

Since 1964 Royal St. George's College has been providing an extraordinary learning environment for boys in the heart of downtown Toronto.
The Georgian experience has always transcended an outstanding academic education. Our mission is to challenge and inspire each boy to be the best version of himself.
Our RSGC guarantee of Known and Loved is something that is lived everyday at the school. Each student is challenged and supported academically, athletically, artistically, socially and emotionally. The best version of himself is a person of character. The best version of himself is an inquirer and a critical thinker. The best version of himself is engaged in a breadth of experiences and understands what it feels like to commit to being the best. The best version of himself is cultivated in authentic relationships with outstanding educators who are passionate about their students. The best version of himself is a Georgian.
There is an intangible quality to a great school; something you can sense when you walk in the door. It’s the sense of community and the culture of respect. It’s the esprit de corps and the sense of pride and belonging among the students. It’s the way the school resonates and simply feels right. I welcome you to come and visit Royal St. George’s College and see, feel and understand the benefits of the Georgian experience for yourself.
Sincerely,
Stephen Beatty (Class of ’86)
Headmaster
Royal St. George’s College
Progressive
Information not available
Progressive (sometimes called "in- quiry-based") curricula attempt to place children's interests and ideas at the heart of the learning experience. Instead of lessons being driven by predetermined pathways, progressive curricula are often "emergent", with learning activities shaped by students' questions about the world. Instead of starting with academic concepts and then tying it to everyday experience, progressive methods begin with everyday experience and work back to an academic lesson. Teachers provide materials, experiences, tools and resources to help students investigate a topic or issue. Students are encouraged to explore, reflect on their findings, and discuss answers or solutions.

Some private schools offer International Baccalaureate (IB) programming. The "Diploma Programme" is offered to students in the final two years of high school, while the "Primary Years Programme" (ages 3 to 12) and "Middle Years Programme" (ages 11 to 16) serve as preparation for the diploma program.

At Lynn-Rose we align our overall school curriculum within the framework of the (IB) International Baccalaureate Programme, providing the most unique and comprehensive learning experience available in the Greater Toronto Area. Flexibility in our Programme encourages students to achieve the expected outcomes in a manner conducive to their own learning style. At Lynn-Rose, your child will thrive within our outstanding academic curriculum and will have the opportunity to explore the arts through creativity, music and drama.
At Royal St. George's College, our academically grounded, hands-on curriculum emphasizes project and inquiry-based learning. In our nurturing environment, our boys develop creative problem solving and critical thinking skills. In the Junior School, we require our students to take on the roles of Researcher, Designer, Developer and Presenter as they engage in interdisciplinary and collaborative real world learning. We encourage thoughtful questioning, deep learning, the application of knowledge and meaningful reflection. In the Senior School, boys engage in a demanding curriculum that requires creative problem solving and refined inquiry skills. The students choose from a wide variety of thought-provoking courses, including Design Engineering, Advanced Placement courses and the AP Capstone, which offer an abundance of opportunities for enriched learning. Georgians are global-minded, innovative thinkers who are able to build personal and collective knowledge while they engage in design, engineering, entrepreneurship, collaboration and the arts. Built upon the values of integrity, community, spirituality and empathy, Georgian academics equip boys with the skills required to navigate and live balanced, purposeful and happy lives.

Aligning the Ontario Mathematics Curriculum with the framework of International Baccalaureate Continuum is a unique opportunity for Lynn-Rose learners to build, develop and enhance their numeracy skills. In the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), mathematics is viewed primarily as a vehicle to support inquiry, providing a universal language through which we make sense of the world around us. Mathematics is an essential tool for transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary inquiry. As students progress from the MYP to the DP, the emphasis on understanding increases as students work towards developing a strong mathematical knowledge base that will allow them to study a wide range of topics. At Lynn-Rose Schools, mathematics is a tool for solving problems in an authentic real-life context.

Balanced Literacy
Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.
Balanced reading programs are typically Whole Language programs with supplementary phonics training. This training might be incidental, or it might take the form of mini-lessons.
Lynn-Rose Schools strives to help students become enthusiastic readers and writers. Our phonics program carries both systematic and incidental approaches starting in Junior Kindergarten. The first approach follows a consistent framework, and uses systematic synthetic phonics as the main route to reading unknown words. However, students also have the opportunity to inevitably encounter words through reading and responding to texts. Combining both approaches in our classes helps students develop automaticity as they move to higher grade levels.

The systematic approach to teaching beginner writing focuses on directly imparting explicit sentence construction strategies, along with planning, revising, and editing skills. Students are asked to learn these explicit strategies and skills and practice them before applying them in more holistic writing assignments. Grammar and parts of sentences tend to have a central role in systematic writing instruction.
Not applicable
At Lynn-Rose Schools, writing is a fundamental skill, starting in early years as part of our literacy program. Students develop the skills to use the evidence-based strategy of combining words and sentences. Moreover, students combine multiple ideas into a single sentence. Students learn to edit, proofread and and publish their writing while being provided structured instructions and feedback. Lynn-Rose strives to plant the love of writing in all students and develop their talents and skills through unstructured and creative writing opportunities inside and outside the classroom.

The Expanding Communities approach organizes the curriculum around students’ present, everyday experience. In the younger grades, students might learn about themselves, for example. As they move through the grades, the focus gradually broadens in scope: to the family, neighbourhood, city, province, country, and globe. The curriculum tends to have less focus on history than Core Knowledge programs.

Medium integration
A major effort is made to integrate the development of digital literacy throughout the curriculum and in everything students do. Digital literacy is understood to be a fundamental skill in the 21st century: it therefore follows, the idea goes, that teachers should find ways to connect every lesson back to technology. Effort is made to ensure the use of technology is meaningful and advances students’ skills beyond what they would otherwise be from using computers outside the classroom.

Academic-based preschools and Kindergartens are the most structured of the different types, and have a strong emphasis on math and reading readiness skills. These programs aim to expose children to what early-elementary school is like. While time is still allotted to free play, much of the day is built around explicit lessons guided by the teacher. Classrooms often resemble play-based ones (with different stations set up around the room), but at an Academic program the teacher leads students through the stations directly, and ties these activities to a whole-class lesson or theme.

Standard-enriched
The main curriculum accelerates beyond the pace of the provincial one; ALL students do the work of OLDER public-school peers in tangible and measurable ways. This accelerated pace is maintained by the teachers and school, (through textbook selection, topic selection, grading, assignment standards and expectations, etc).
Broadly-speaking, the main curriculum -- like that of most schools -- paces the provincially-outlined one. This pace is steady and set by the teachers and school. The curriculum might still be enriched in various ways: covering topics more in-depth and with more vigor than the provincial one, or covering a broader selection of topics.
Rigorous
A school with a “rigorous” academic culture places a high value on academic performance, and expects their students to do the same. This does not mean the school is uncaring, unsupportive, or non-responsive -- far from it. A school can have a rigorous academic culture and still provide excellent individual support. It does mean, however, the school places a particular emphasis on performance -- seeking the best students and challenging them to the fullest extent -- relative to a normal baseline. High expectations and standards – and a challenging yet rewarding curriculum – are the common themes here. Keep in mind this classification is more relevant for the older grades: few Kindergarten classrooms, for example, would be called “rigorous”.

Our enriched programming exposes boys to a breadth of learning opportunities that deepen their understanding of themselves and the world around them. The inquiry process is at the heart of the learning in the Junior School. Our students take on the roles of researchers, designers, developers and presenters as they engage in hands-on and meaningful problem solving. In our Senior School, we offer numerous AP and enriched programming that provide students with the opportunity to engage in rigorous scholarly practice of core academic skills through collaboration, research, critical thinking and problem solving.

The Lynn-Rose Schools leadership team and educators are committed to supporting students throughout the learning process to develop life skills and build their own agency by adapting the IBO philosophy for placing the learner in the center of education. Since experiences during the early years lay the foundation for all future learning, early learners emerge with life skills development with the support of their educators. Our school is proud of the holistic learning experience that integrates socio-emotional, physical and cognitive development.
RSGC endeavours to develop the following special set of attributes. Our aspiration is that each RSGC boy: • Is inquisitive, creative and collaborative • Is resilient and able to adapt and thrive • Has moral character and spiritual strength • Is kind, polite and caring • Has a global mindset and community awareness • Takes initiative and honours his commitments • Values continuous learning • Gives back to his communities • Continues to be engaged in the Georgian community throughout his life.
