FAQs

What is the difference between public and private school?

The difference at Town Centre is the level of care shown by teachers. Our teachers really care about the students and always make extra efforts to help and guide students. We have high expectations, but we support and guide our students to be successful in school life. Parents can feel reassured that their children are getting the best care and education.

Do we follow the Ontario Curriculum?

Although we do follow the Ontario Curriculum as a baseline, at Town Centre we offer an enhanced and enriched curriculum. Mathematics is taught at a year ahead and many subjects are taught at a higher level with high school preparation in mind. The IB program is rigorous but provides many opportunities to learn allowing for differentiated and diverse learning needs.

How does the before and after school extended care work?

Town Centre Private Schools offers the most convenient solution for busy working families. We offer extended care in both the before and after school timings which is included in the tuition. Students do not need to be pre-registered to attend the extended care program, which is available on a drop-in basis. The school is open at 7:00 a.m. and closed at 6:30 p.m. for any student who needs to arrive early before school or stay late afterschool. As an added bonus, students who stay for afterschool extended care have the opportunity to complete homework during study hall, supervised by teachers.

Every parent wants the best for their child. They want to give them the tools they need to succeed in the world, to be the best they can be, and to be happy. As parents of two boys, we wanted to give them the best start in life we could. As with many parents, education is high on the list of priorities.

When our first child was one, we set out to find the best possible education facility. When we saw all the wonderful things that Town Centre offered and we knew right away that this was the environment we wanted our child to grown and learn in. He started when he was two and all his teachers took great pride in providing an atmosphere of care just as if he was their own. As he got older the teachers showed him how to learn independently in various gentle ways. Each year he has spent at Town Centre has been a great experience for my son as well as us. All the staff at the school are so easy to approach and they are very understanding of the needs of the children and the parents. My son is now in grade eight and he feels that Town Centre has taught him to be ready to face all the new challenges in his next stage of life and learning. He will be moving on the high school but he will always have the gift of knowledge that all the staff and teachers have given him.

Our second child is following closely in his footsteps and is now in grade five at Town Centre. He has shown such growth in his abilities. We are looking forward to the next few years. My husband and I feel we have definitely given both our children the best start in the very important developmental years of their life.

– Mrs. Bruhn, TCPS parent
