IB Curriculum International Schools in Toronto, Canada

Toronto’s International Baccalaureate (IB) schools include a mix of independent private schools that often deliver the full PYP - MYP - DP continuum and publicly funded secondary schools that offer the two-year Diploma Programme. Instruction is usually in English, but several schools run bilingual French - English IB streams and many independent schools add additional language tracks such as Mandarin or Spanish. Independent IB day schools in the city commonly publish annual tuition in the tens of thousands of Canadian dollars (with full-service day tuitions commonly clustering in the mid-20k to mid-40k range and boarding options adding substantially more), while publicly funded IB in the Toronto District School Board carries only a modest program charge rather than full tuition. Admissions for independent schools typically involve an application, interview and assessed visit with key deadlines in the autumn for a September start, whereas publicly funded IB places are handled through central board admissions and specialised-program application windows - always confirm each school’s exact calendar before you move.
