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.
Read The Our Kids Review of Lynn-Rose School
Rotherglen School was founded in 1979 by Marie Laningan at the Erin Mills campus. The school has grown in the intervening years to include four locations, all of which share the same approach. Were all the students housed at one campus, Rotherglen would be one of the largest independent schools in the area, home to 1000 students annually. The various locations, however, afford a unique sense of community within each, with small class sizes, and a close-knit feel. While aesthetics don’t mean everything, they nevertheless do mean something, and the school is physically beautiful, with dedicated, consistent learning spaces.

Progressive
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.

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.
Particularly popular in the younger grades (preschool to elementary), but sometimes available all the way up to high school, Montessori schools offer an alternative vision to the standard lesson format of most classrooms. Instead of listening to whole-class lessons, Montessori classrooms allow students to choose which "tasks" or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles - their essential feature being they contain a right answer and allow for selfcorrection. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on lessons being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with students developing a sense of self-sufficiency, confidence and curiosity.
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.
Rotherglen is a co-educational, non-denominational community of private independent schools for students in Montessori, Casa, JK, SK to Grade 8. With four campuses located in Oakville and Mississauga, we offer learning environments which foster excellence in education, character and leadership programs, an enriched curriculum and differentiated teaching and learning experiences designed to engage each student’s unique learning style. Our primary school program (Casa to Grade 3) is firmly rooted in Montessori principles, while incorporating an enhanced Ontario curriculum, including French and music. This provides a solid foundation for our Grade 4 -8 program which transitions into an enriched and progressive style of learning. Give your child the lifelong returns of a Rotherglen education.
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. Through Higher Education Preparatory Program, students undergo a transformative journey, fostering the growth of self-confidence, acquiring vital skills, and building a strong sense of belonging within both the school and the community. The HEPP provides students with immersive learning experiences as they navigate the transition to high school. These sector-specific programs are inclusive, catering to students of all skill levels. 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.

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.

Phonics-intensive
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.

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.
Systematic approach
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.
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.
Information not available
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.
Equal Balance
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.

Expanding Communities
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.

Heavy integration
Computers are used in the classroom from time to time, but integrating technology into everything students do is not a dominant focus. Digital literacy is understood to be a legitimate skill in the 21st century, but not one that should distract from teaching the subject at hand, or more fundamental skills and literacies. The idea is today’s students, being “digital natives”, are likely exposed to computers and new media enough outside the classroom: the role of the school, rather, should be to develop competencies that may otherwise get missed.
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
Montessori programs aimed at preschool and Kindergarten- aged children allow young learners to choose which “tasks” or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles -- the essential features of these puzzles being they contain a “right answer” and allow for self-correction. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on learning being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with children developing a sense of self-sufficiency and confidence. Specially trained teachers act as guides, introducing children to progressively more difficult materials when appropriate. A Montessori classroom is typically very calm and orderly, with children working alone or, sometimes, in small groups.
If you want to learn more about Montessori education, check out our comprehensive guide. You can also check out our guide to Montessori preschools, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools.
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.
A focus in the Casa classroom is to foster independence and instill confidence in our students to explore their own potential. Students are taught grace and courtesy at a young age, which gives each child a heightened sense of respect for others and for themselves. Our Montessori qualified teachers guide our students toward working independently and learning through experience. Children learn to work at a task from beginning to end and develop their self-discipline and the capacity for deep concentration. The teacher-to-student ratio in the Casa program is 1:15.
The Lynn-Rose IB Primary Years Program is the foundation your child needs in order to maximize their potential growth moving forward. With a skilled team of active and versatile faculty, your child will gain the academic base necessary to succeed. LR is founded on a philosophy that recognizes a child's natural curiosity, creativity and the ability to reflect.
Accelerated
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.
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).

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”.
At Rotherglen, we know our students and teach in ways which engage all students in their learning and encourage and support their academic, social and emotional well-being.

We pride ourselves on being a uniquely warm and nurturing school community, which enhances every child’s learning experience. Rotherglen is what school should be – a place where staff and parents work together to instill sound values in the students in our care, and to inspire them to recognize and reach their full potential by using their knowledge, abilities and talents, combined with 21st Century learning skills, to enhance their own lives and to participate ethically and responsibly in the global community.
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.
