When you think of an archetypal British boarding school what do you think of? What images are conjured up in your mind when you think about an East Coast American Prep boarding school or an Indian boarding school? Many people have preconceived notions of boarding schools in general, not to mention what they are like in various places around the world.
The boarding culture developed in earnest in England and eventually moved throughout the Commonwealth, New England and beyond. Now you can find boarding schools all over the world; anywhere from China to Germany.
So what differentiates our Canadian boarding schools from those found in rest of the world? Originally, not much; Canadian boarding schools evolved in areas where the British migrated: Eastern Canada, Ontario and British Columbia. Now, Canada can boast over 25 fantastic boarding schools, from east to west, all offering a myriad of unique opportunities.
