We can”™t predict the future, but we do know that our children will face a world that is very different from today. Parents and educators need to work in tandem to develop students who are self-directed, innately curious, and have the knowledge and confidence to find their way in the world
At Whitby, we meet this challenge head-on by creating an environment designed to develop vibrant, inquiring minds, and a love of learning. Our unique combination of Montessori and International Baccalaureate programs, along with our informed teaching and learning model, creates a deeply personalized experience for every child across our educational continuum
Whitby students are innately curious and have the knowledge and confidence to find their way in a 21st-century world.
