Ashbury celebrated its 130th anniversary in 2021, making it one of the oldest schools in the nation. Of that class, it’s also one of the larger schools, with an annual enrollment in the 800 range. There are benefits to size, and Ashbury displays them, with a wealth of extra-curricular activities and co-curricular programs. The school was founded by a graduate of Oxford, Canon George Penrose Woollcombe, who cast the school within the academic tradition that Oxford was, and is, an example of. That said, times change, and certainly Ashbury did as well. The school was an early adopter of global education, most obviously with the addition of the IB program in 1976. Girls were enrolled in 1982, and while the boys still marginally outnumber the girls, the school continues to move toward gender parity. The list of alumni is impressive, including a prime minister, John Turner, and a Nobel laureate, Douglass North. The ideal student is one looking for a challenge, and who can function well in very active curricular and extracurricular environments.
View full reportAcademics are the top priority at Rotman Arts & Science School (RASS). This Kindergarten to Grade 12 school provides small class sizes that allow instructors to focus on the development of individual learners. Students are encouraged to be self-motivated and to actively participate in their own education. RASS also fosters lifelong learning and development and nurtures students’ intellectual and emotional growth to help them to make positive contributions to Canadian society. Students practice discipline, self-management, and responsibility, and learn to think critically and creatively. RASS was founded in 2004 to combine academic education with professional arts training, offer unique opportunities for advanced courses and independent study, and enable students to pursue their individual interests.

Liberal Arts
Reggio Emilia
Traditional curricula tend to be very content-based and rooted in the core disciplines. It is a structured approach that involves the teacher delivering a unified curriculum through direct instruction. Students usually learn by observing and listening to their teacher, studying facts and concepts in textbooks, and completing both tests and written assignments - which challenge students to not only demonstrate their mastery of content but their ability to analyze and deconstruct it critically. Class discussions are also used to create critical dialogue around the content of the curriculum.
Liberal Arts curricula share with traditional programs their emphasis on core knowledge-acquisition, but tend to borrow more best practices from the progressive approach. A Liberal Arts program might still feature group work and projects, for example, contrary to the more singular emphasis on tests and essays at a Traditional program.
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.
Reggio Emilia programs are offered by some schools at the preschool and elementary level. The approach aims to develop curiosity and problem-solving skills through the liberal use of projects (as opposed to activities or lessons): teachers design projects for children around their demonstrated interests. Projects can be geared to an individual student, a small group of students, or the class as a whole. They can last from a few days to the whole year. Art is strongly emphasized and is typically incorporated into every project. Teachers actively participate in projects alongside students, rather than sitting back and observing. The philosophy calls for a high degree of parent involvement as well, particularly when forming curricula and project plans (which happens throughout the academic year).
The liberal education provided by the Ashbury College teaches students to think, speak and write clearly, critically and creatively. It leads them to explore the core subjects that comprise our human heritage and are the hallmarks of an educated person. It develops a healthy body and illuminates the spirit by inspiring students to look beyond themselves towards the greater good. Ashbury graduates enter university with the knowledge, skills, integrity and compassion born of careful scholarship, richly rewarding faculty contacts, physical activity and spiritual reflection.

Equal Balance
Traditional Math typically teaches a method or algorithm FIRST, and THEN teaches the applications for the method. Traditional algorithms are emphasized and practiced regularly: repetition and drills are frequently used to ensure foundational mastery in the underlying mathematical procedures. The traditional approach to math views math education as akin to building a logical edifice: each brick depends on the support of the previously laid ones, which represent mastery over a particular procedure or method. Traditional Math begins by giving students a tool, and then challenges students to practice using that tool an applied way, with progressively challenging problems. In this sense Traditional Math aims to establish procedural understanding before conceptual and applied understanding.
These math programs feature an equal balance of “Traditional” and “Discovery” methods.
By incorporating both traditional and discovery methods into math programs, educators aim to strike a balance between foundational knowledge and the development of critical thinking skills. This approach recognizes that mathematical proficiency requires not only knowing how to perform calculations but also understanding why those calculations work and how they can be applied in various contexts.

Balanced Literacy
Whole Language reading programs eschew sublexical (under the word-level) training, focusing instead on getting students to infer and guess at words based on their understanding of the larger meaning of the sentence (“context-clues”). Students are given ample opportunity to read actual literature (age-appropriate) along with strategies for using semantic-based clues to pronounce unrecognized words.
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.
The key advantage of this approach is its flexibility. It acknowledges that reading is a complex skill that requires a combination of strategies. By blending Whole Language with supplementary phonics, balanced reading programs cater to the diverse needs of students. They allow learners to use their understanding of whole words and context, while also equipping them with the tools to decode unfamiliar words systematically. Ultimately, balanced reading programs aim to create proficient and confident readers by harnessing the strengths of both approaches.
Equal balance
Programs that balance systematic and process approaches equally likely have an emphasis on giving young students ample opportunities to write, while providing supplementary class-wide instruction in grammar, parts of sentences, and various writing strategies.

Balanced literacy programs offer supplementary instruction in grammar, sentence structure, and various writing strategies. This instruction is designed to equip students with the necessary tools to refine and enhance their writing. It helps them understand the mechanics of language, develop a command of grammar rules, and craft well-structured, coherent sentences and paragraphs.

Science programs that balance expository and inquiry learning equally will likely have an equal blend of tests and experiments; direct, textbook-based instruction and student-centred projects.

Core Knowledge
The Thematic approach organizes the curriculum around certain themes or cultural universals. Students might spend time focused on food. Then they might focus on transportation or government, and so on.
Usually focused on teaching history and geography at an early age, the core knowledge approach uses story, drama, reading, and discussion to teach about significant people, places, and events. Breadth of content and knowledge is emphasized. The curriculum is often organized according to the underlying logic of the content: history might be taught sequentially, for example (as students move through the grades).
What sets Core Knowledge apart is its commitment to breadth of content. It aims to expose students to a wide range of knowledge, fostering an understanding of the interconnectedness of different subjects. For instance, history may be taught sequentially, ensuring that students acquire a chronological understanding of historical events and their consequences. This approach acknowledges that a solid foundation of knowledge equips students with the tools to think critically, make connections, and engage with complex ideas effectively. By emphasizing the acquisition of content knowledge, the Core Knowledge approach prepares students to become informed and well-rounded individuals capable of tackling a broad array of academic and real-world challenges.

In balanced programs, students benefit from the best of both worlds. They engage with classical texts and enduring ideas, gaining a deep appreciation for the intellectual heritage of human thought. Simultaneously, they explore practical, real-world issues, developing critical thinking skills and an ability to apply their knowledge to contemporary challenges. By striking this equilibrium, students not only develop a strong foundation in the humanities and social sciences but also acquire the analytical and problem-solving abilities needed to navigate a complex and ever-changing world effectively. It ensures a holistic and relevant education that prepares students for both intellectual enrichment and practical success.

These programs feature an equal blend of the audio-lingual and communicative styles of language instruction.
By combining both approaches, language programs offer students the opportunity to develop a balanced skill set. Learners gain the benefits of the audio-lingual method's precision and grammar mastery, ensuring a strong foundation. Simultaneously, they acquire the communicative approach's ability to use language effectively in practical, everyday situations, fostering fluency and real-world communication skills. This balanced approach acknowledges that language learning is not merely about rules and structures but also about meaningful interaction and expression. It equips learners with the tools to both understand the mechanics of a language and use it confidently and naturally in diverse contexts.

These programs have an equal emphasis on receptive and creative learning.
An equal emphasis on both receptive and creative learning recognizes that education is a dynamic process. Students need the ability to absorb information effectively and then apply that knowledge in innovative and practical ways. This balance ensures that learners not only understand concepts but can also use them to analyze, synthesize, and contribute meaningfully to their fields of study. In essence, programs that embrace both receptive and creative learning empower students to become well-rounded, adaptable, and resourceful thinkers and doers, capable of thriving in a variety of academic and real-world contexts.

The approach acknowledges that digital literacy is a tool that enhances learning and prepares students for the modern world but is most effective when integrated seamlessly into the broader context of education. This allows students to leverage digital skills as part of their overall educational experience without overshadowing the importance of traditional knowledge and critical thinking.

We encourage students to engage with the broader community through sports events, fitness challenges, and community service activities. This fosters a sense of belonging and civic responsibility. Our school's approach to physical education prioritizes holistic health, skill development, inclusivity, and personalization. We aim to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to lead active and healthy lives while fostering important values and life skills.
Academic
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.

Supportive
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”.
A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.
A supportive academic culture within our school is characterized by a set of norms and expectations that prioritize student well-being, growth, and success. We emphasize collaboration over competition, fostering an environment where students are encouraged to help and support each other in their academic endeavors. Mistakes are viewed as opportunities for learning, and failure is seen as a stepping stone to improvement rather than a source of shame.
"We honour and distinguish our brightest students, using them as examples for other students to follow."
"We intentionally avoid all forms of public distinction between students in terms of academic performance."
