Yorkville IB World School

Yorkville IB World School is a premier International Baccalaureate institution in the heart of Toronto's Yorkville district, offering the full IB continuum — Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and Diploma Programme — for students aged 3 to 18. The school combines the globally recognized IB framework with the standards of the Ontario Ministry of Education, ensuring that graduates earn both the IB Diploma and credits toward the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). The campus is a modern facility designed to support 21st-century learning. A state-of-the-art sports complex includes a swimming pool, indoor gymnasium, and fitness centre. The school also features a 500-seat theatre for performing arts, six fully equipped science laboratories, a dedicated design and technology workshop, and a digital media studio. The library holds over 25,000 volumes in English, French, and Spanish, reflecting the school's commitment to multilingual education. The school holds dual accreditation from the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the Canadian Accredited Independent Schools (CAIS), in addition to authorization from the International Baccalaureate Organization. This combination of accreditations confirms the school's commitment to both international educational standards and Canadian independent school excellence. Academic results are outstanding. IB Diploma candidates consistently achieve an average point score well above the global mean, with multiple students scoring 40 or above out of 45. Graduates secure places at leading Canadian universities — including the University of Toronto, McGill, UBC, and Queen's — through the OUAC system, as well as at top international institutions. The language programme offers English as the primary medium of instruction, French from Junior Kindergarten in alignment with Ontario expectations, and Spanish from Grade 6. Students may pursue French or Spanish at higher level in the IB Diploma, and many achieve bilingual IB Diplomas. Extracurricular life is rich, encompassing competitive sports teams, Model United Nations, debate, robotics, visual and performing arts, and a comprehensive CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) programme that includes partnerships with Toronto-based charities and community organizations. Tuition fees range from CAD 28,000 to CAD 48,000 per year. The school offers merit-based entrance scholarships and a limited number of needs-based bursaries. Early application is recommended as several grade levels maintain waiting lists.
