An independent, coeducational IB Continuum World School in Maple Ridge, British Columbia (about 55 minutes from Vancouver), delivering all three IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP) alongside the BC Ministry of Education curriculum on a 35-acre campus. Tier capped at A: Canada has provincial ministry oversight of curriculum but no single graded public inspectorate that publishes an Outstanding/Good-style band per school.
West Vancouver's flagship full-continuum IB World School — a co-educational, gender-inclusive, secular day school running all three IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP) unbroken from preschool (age 3) to Grade 12. A not-for-profit independent school on a Cypress Bowl mountainside campus, accredited by CIS, CAIS and ISABC, with a genuinely international community (families from 37 countries) and a low 7:1 student ratio. A strong fit for families wanting a single, internationally-portable IB pathway through the whole of a child's schooling; less suited to families seeking boarding, a faith-based school, or a lower fee point.
A strong, fully-accredited IB continuum school delivering the Primary, Middle Years and Diploma programmes from Kindergarten to Grade 12 on a single Vancouver campus.
