Toronto is a city of unparalleled dining options, a thriving arts and entertainment scene, and a multicultural demographic with more than half of its population hailing from outside the country. It even has an airport in the downtown core. One of the biggest benefits for parents, however, is that Toronto is also home to a number of the top-ranked private schools in the country—meaning there’s no shortage of outstanding education options to choose from. In these neighbourhoods, the curriculum, facilities, and mentors are first-class. Read on to discover the Top Private Schools in Toronto by Neighbourhood.

Bishop Strachan School — Girls, Elementary and Secondary

Bishop Strachan School is Canada’s oldest continuously operating independent day and boarding school for girls.

The school blends the contemporary and traditional; you’ll find history in the iconic 100-year-old building, and modernity in the brand new multi-million dollar STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) complex.

If you’re sending your daughter(s) to Bishop Strachan, the morning drop-off routine will be made easier by enrolling your son(s) at Upper Canada College (UCC), just one minute down the road.
