Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, Rosedale is proximate to a wealth of physical resources that wouldn't be available to schools of a similar size located elsewhere. The student body is small, with just 170 students, though the school partners with the University of Toronto, the AGO, and the ROM, all of which are located within a short distance of the school. The school very happily makes use of all of those resources, including the athletic facilities at U of T. The school adopts a range of progressive practices, including a promotion of cross-curricular instruction and cooperative learning. In all, it's a very nice mix, combining the intimacy of a small student body with a lot of resources and facilities close to hand. While perhaps not a gifted school, per se, the ideal learner is one who can benefit from an enriched curriculum.
View full reportWest Island College (WIC), in Montreal, is effectively two schools under one roof. It offers an enriched education for Grades 7 to 11 in two streams: one for native French language speakers and a separate French immersion program. Academic excellence is the main focus at WIC. The school also has strong athletics and arts programs, and offers a wide range of extracurriculars that includes musical theatre, debate, robotics, school newspaper work, and yoga. This helps unlock kids’ passions and nurtures their interests. After enrolment, kids enter one of three houses at WIC, creating instant camaraderie and community. Small class sizes, individualized learning, and whole-person development help kids thrive academically but also socially and emotionally. Kids at WIC are encouraged to grow into well-rounded, global-minded citizens who are actively engaged with their community both inside and outside of the school gates.

Traditional
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.
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.

The Rosedale Day School provides a well-balanced education to each and every student in small, nurturing classes. The school motto is "every child is unique" and this reflects our approach to education for today's child and modern learner in order to prepare them for what lies ahead. The curriculum is designed and delivered with each student in mind to ensure they receive the best foundation for future success. We follow the Ontario Curriculum as a basis and enrich or extend whenever possible.

These math programs feature an equal balance of “Traditional” and “Discovery” methods.
RDS uses the JUMP Math program to ensure all students have a solid understanding of the material and concepts presented. The approach is to break questions down in to the basic steps and teach each step in short lessons before continuing. The allows the students to master all of the processes and fill in any and all gaps in their knowledge. In the older grades, RDS then builds upon this solid foundation to further critical thinking and problem solving skills. The goal is to develop students with analytical expertise paired with higher order thinking proficiency.

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.

RDS utilizes the Jolly Phonics Program in Kindergarten to build the skills necessary for early reading and writing skills. The program starts with the letter "S" the first week of Junior Kindergarten and continues from there with the letters most commonly used letters in the English language. Most students are reading and writing short paragraphs by half way through Senior Kindergarten and are fluent by the time they enter Grade 1.

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.

Inquiry
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.
Inquiry-based science emphasizes teaching science as a way of thinking or practice, and therefore tries to get students “doing” science as much as possible -- and not just “learning” it. Students still learn foundational scientific ideas and content (and build on this knowledge progressively); however, relative to expository science instruction, inquiry-based programs have students spend more time developing and executing their own experiments (empirical and theoretical). Students are frequently challenged to develop critical and scientific-thinking skills by developing their own well-reasoned hypothesis and finding ways to test those hypotheses. Projects and experiments are emphasized over textbook learning. Skills are emphasized over breadth of knowledge.

Heavy 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.

Play-based programs are the most common type of preschool and Kindergarten, and are founded on the belief young children learn best through play. Largely open-ended and minimally structured, play-based programs aim to develop social skills and a love of attending school. “Pre-academic” skills are taught, but in a more indirect way than at, say, an Academic program: through children playing in different “stations” set up around the classroom, which children choose on their own volition. Stations often contain an indirect lesson or developmental goal. Play-based classrooms are highly social and active.
Not applicable
The Kindergarten Program at RDS is focused on developing independence, self-confidence and curiosity about the world through a child-centered, inquiry-based approach. Teachers create learning experiences that are tailored to student interests and capabilities. Each child brings a unique sense of authenticity to the classroom; a set of interests, abilities, attitudes and stories that are valued, fostered and included in their learning.

Standard-enriched
The main curriculum pace is non-standardized and is HIGHLY responsive to the pacing of individual students, (via differentiated instruction, differentiated assessment, etc). In theory, some students outpace the default/normalized curriculum, while others spend periods "behind schedule" if they need the extra time.
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.
Information not available
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”.
The Rosedale Day School provides a well-balanced education to each and every student in small, nurturing classes.

The goal of the Learning Strategies department at RDS is to develop student confidence, independence, and love of learning. We operate on a three-tier model of support: Tier 1: A qualified special education teacher consults with classroom teachers to differentiate instruction. Tier 2: Grounded in assessment, a Learning Profile is created which outlines recommended accommodations to the student’s learning. We do not modify curriculum expectations at RDS. Tier 3: There are three options for intensive, remediation for students who are significantly behind grade expectations: In-class support: A Learning Strategist will go into the classroom during instructional time to provide small-group and/or individual support. AM/PM support: A student can attend morning or afternoon sessions with a Learning Strategies teacher to build specific skills. Withdrawal support: A student can be removed from a non-curricular subject or French Language instruction to receive short-term one-on-one instruction.
Information not available
All students are given equitable access to the curriculum through differentiated instruction and universal design for learning. Prospective students are asked to share insight into their learning profile [IEP, Psych-ed Reports and any other relevant documentation] that will allow us to determine if we are able to support and ensure they will be successful at RDS.
We have 1 learning specialist who reviews psycho-educational assessments and individualized education plans that are currently being followed. WIC is not necessarily able to support all children's needs. Please contact our Admissions Officer, Tatiana Deveau at [email protected] if you have questions.

RDS's Motto is "Every Child is Unique"; we know each child is their own individual. RDS is not looking for potential students who fit into a cookie cutter mould. Children have different needs, and they all learn and thrive in different ways. What RDS is looking for is students with good character. Our four Core Values are the foundation from which success is derived. We look for students whose personalities align with our community and embody them. Our four Core Values are: Diligence - Always doing your best. Integrity - Telling the truth and having strong moral principals. Respect - yourself, your work, peers, teachers, the community, and all those you come in contact with. Involvement - Being an active part of classes, sports, clubs and the whole RDS community.
We begin accepting applications in September for the following academic year. Should a current grade have any immediate openings we would be able to offer early registration at that time. Alternatively in early February after our current families have re-enrolled should any new openings become available we offer acceptance to students who have met our admissions criteria.
