Bishop’s College School (BCS) was founded in 1836, becoming an all-gender school in 1972 through an amalgamation with King's Hall, Compton. That long history is apparent in the traditions that remain at the school, including chapel (now non-denominational) three times a week, the social organization of the school into houses, and a thriving and varied co-curricular offering. BCS has a strong culture of leadership, and students are encouraged to get out of their comfort zone and take on leadership roles in their house, within activities and committees, and through cadets. Athletics are an integral part of daily life at BCS: every student participates in an individual or team sport five days a week (and they also participate in three different sports a year). BCS has been a member of Round Square since 1986, something which provides a foundation for the diversity of the student population, one that includes students from over 40 countries despite an annual enrolment of around 270 students.

As we gear up for the 2023-24 school year, I share in your family’s excitement and anticipation of embarking upon your BCS journey. You now belong to a globally diverse group of engaged and motivated students preparing to impact the world. You will be challenged with programs designed to inspire, motivate, and grow each student’s mind, body, heart, and soul, in a place where young individuals can be themselves, develop respect for others, and explore the true meaning of leadership, character, generosity, and integrity. We are preparing you for a life of continuous curiosity and instilling in you the values to become compassionate and purposeful global citizens. Your experience, and that of your family’s, will be characterized by the relationships between caring and supportive faculty and staff and highly motivated and engaged students. One truth that I have learned in my 29 years in education is that life is defined by the meaningful relationships that we build, nurture, and value. Everyone at BCS embraces our inclusive community, celebrates our diversity, shares a commitment to care for each other, and understands the meaning of the work that we strive to accomplish. I believe that young people rise to the expectations that are set for them and that they can all reach their unique potential if they are provided with the appropriate support and encouragement. At BCS, those supports are in place for you from the first day you arrive on campus. Your houseparent is eager to welcome you with open arms, your teachers and coaches can’t wait to have you join their groups, and the best friends you will inevitably make are as excited as you are to form lifelong bonds. Your life-enriching adventure is only just beginning! I look forward to welcoming you to Bishop’s College School and witnessing first-hand the special qualities you will bring to our community. I am excited for you to experience, for yourself, the magic that is BCS.
Kind regards,
Michel Lafrance

Traditional
International Baccalaureate
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.
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.
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.
The very essence of BCS is the strength of our rigorous academic program that empowers students to think independently, critically, and creatively. Our approach to teaching and learning is strongly influenced by our school mission and values. These drive the implementation of our programs as well as the continuous review of our curriculum so that it prepares students for an ever-changing world. Our students live academic and extra-curricular experiences on and off campus that help them grow into caring, principled leaders. At BCS, students study in a vibrant multicultural, collaborative environment. With a small average class size, students receive ample individualized attention and support through a coherent curriculum that balances the development of competencies, concepts, and approaches to learning. Students develop a love of learning and academic confidence to succeed in the different roles they will play in our global society. We tailor our holistic approach to meet each student’s needs, interests or passions so that they reach their full potential while maintaining the highest academic standards of our Middle and Senior schools’ rigorous programs.

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.

We use a Phonics Intensive program as established in the new Alberta curriculum. It is based on the science of reading, is systemically taught, and has built-in interventions. We use literature to stimulate ideas and teach specific concepts of, and when reading

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.
During Elementary, inquiry is mainly used to encourage curiosity, engagement and skill development, as well as critical thinking. Where needed to support understanding of concepts, expository learning will occur with direct instruction. As students get older, more direct teaching occurs to introduce concepts, then inquiry will be used to develop understanding further. In High School, more explicit teaching is used to ensure diploma preparedness

In traditional literature programs students focus on decoding the mechanics of texts: plot, characterization, and themes. These texts tend to include a balance of contemporary and “classic” literature. When studying a past work, students investigate its historical context -- but only insofar as this adds understanding to the work itself. Past works are therefore studied “on their own terms”, and not merely as historical artifacts to be deconstructed: traditional literature programs are firmly rooted in the humanities, and carry the belief that great literature can reveal fundamental and universal truths about the human condition. These programs emphasize class discussions and critical essay writing, and aim to develop in students critical thinking, communication skills, and a cultivated taste and ethos.
These literature programs draw in equal measure from “Traditional” and “Social Justice” programs.
Students interest are usually included when considering what literature to read

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.

Focus on knowledge and application and critical thinking of past events. As well as their application to todays economic, social and political landscapes. Again projects play a heavy role as students are encouraged to apply past experiences to build empathy and make connections to social studies topics. Additionally students are encouraged to and taught to bring in their opinions and defend them in a way they see fit, projects, essays, speeches, debates, etc.

The communicative method of language acquisition emphasizes the use of the target language in authentic contexts. The approach commonly features interactive group work, games, authentic texts, and opportunities to learn about the cultural background of the language. Drills and quizzes may still be used, but less frequently than with the audio-lingual method.
These programs feature an equal blend of the audio-lingual and communicative styles of language instruction.
We focus on the communicative method giving students the chance to use the language in real life situations. I also introduce games to make learning fun and engaging and allow natural language development

Creative arts programs are studio-driven. While historical works and movements may still be taught to add context to the program, students mainly engage in making art (visual, musical, theatrical, etc). The goal is use the actual practice of art to help educate students’ emotions, cognition, and ethos.
These programs have an equal emphasis on receptive and creative learning.
Students are introduced to multiple medias and encouraged to explore skills in creating in them.

Heavy integration
Effort is made to integrate the development of digital literacy through the curriculum. However, this is not a dominant focus.
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.
Most students use computers for large portions of their work, although not mandatory, meaning research skills , understanding the need to fact check is incorporated into the curriculum. Learning different ways of presenting information is encouraged

Standard-enriched
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 “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 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”.

We are looking for well-balanced students.
BCS works on 'rolling admissions,' meaning we will accept applications year-round. We do, however, recommend that students apply by February 1 for enrolment the following September.
Tour our Campus
As part of the admissions process, we are excited to help schedule a student-led tour of our campus for you and your family. This is the best way for you to see the school in action and get a sense of what BCS is all about. Individual tours may be done virtually or in-person at BCS and tours are organized on weekdays at 9:00 AM, 10:00 AM, 1:00 PM, or 2:00 PM EST.
Necessary Documents
Schedule an Interview
All prospective students must complete an interview with a member of the Admissions Team. Interviews usually takes 30 minutes and can be done in-person or by Zoom on weekdays between 8:30 AM and 4:00 PM EST.
Complete Math & English Worksheets
All applicants complete a BCS Math worksheet.
All applicants whose first language is English complete the BCS English worksheet.
All applicants whose first language is not English complete the BCS English as a Second Language worksheet.
The Math and English Worksheets can take up to two hours to complete. They can be completed on campus or under the supervision of a teacher or office worker affiliated with your current school. If you choose to have the worksheets done remotely, please provide the Admissions Team with the contact information of the person who has agreed to supervise these subject reviews.
Results from the SSAT or TOEFL Junior completed within the current year may be submitted in lieu of these worksheets. Additional testing may be required in some cases.
