For international and newcomer families · Midtown Toronto
An Ontario diploma, in a school small enough to know your teen.
If your family is new to Canada, or thinking about it, AVRO Academy is a warm, supportive place for your teen to earn a full Ontario Secondary School Diploma. We teach the complete Ontario curriculum and grant OSSD credits, in small classes where teachers have the time to help a new student settle in and do their best work.

Families choose a Canadian education for good reason. Ontario’s schools are respected around the world, and the OSSD is recognized by universities across Canada and beyond. At AVRO, your teen earns that same Ontario diploma in a small, personal school rather than a large, busy one, so a move to a new country can feel less overwhelming and more like a fresh start.
Why families choose AVRO
The full Ontario curriculum
We teach the complete Ontario curriculum, Grades 9 to 12, and grant OSSD credits: the same diploma students earn across the province.
Small, supportive classes
Our classes stay small on purpose, so a student who is new to the school, the city, or the country is known and supported from day one.
A pathway beyond high school
An Ontario diploma places students in a strong position to apply to universities in Canada and around the world.
Settling in at AVRO
Starting at a new school in a new place is a big step. We keep the day structured and the support close.
- Individual attention that meets each student where they are and builds on their strengths
- A calm, welcoming community rather than a large, anonymous classroom
- Teachers who make time for questions, in and out of class
- A learning approach that connects the curriculum to each student’s interests and the wider world
Every family’s situation is different, so details like enrolment steps, documents, and fees are best worked out together. See how to enroll for the process, or book a visit to talk it through with us directly.
