Private school in Vaughan
At Yes!School Gymnasium, being small gives us the power to do big things.
English instruction, strong academics, and soft skills in a school where teachers know each child by name.
Let’s start to do big things together with one small step. Become part of a unique family.
What small makes possible
Small classes help teachers notice what a child needs.
That is the point of being small. A teacher can catch the missed step, give more work when a child is ready, and answer parents with details from the actual school day.
-
01
Notice the problem
A child gets stuck, goes quiet, rushes, or avoids the task.
-
02
Pause
The teacher has enough room to stop before the gap grows.
-
03
Step back
Go back to the last part the child understood clearly.
-
04
Fix the step
Explain again, switch the level, add English support, or give a harder task.
-
05
Move on
The child keeps learning with confidence instead of carrying the problem home.
More chances to notice
In group lessons, teachers have more room to see who is lost, who is waiting, and who is ready for the next task.
Clear academic base
The school follows Ontario curriculum and adds stronger work in literacy, math, science, and French.
English for school life
Instruction is in English, with Russian, Ukrainian, and Hebrew support when language gets in the way of understanding.
Support around the school day
Early drop-off, after-school care, snacks, and hot lunch make the day easier for children and parents.
Parent reviews
See what parents notice about the school.
Many parents start with the same worry: “Will my child be noticed here?” Reviews are a good place to hear how families describe the school after they have been inside it.
Why parents look for a smaller school
A child can look fine and still be unseen.
Some children sit quietly, finish enough work, and never make a fuss. At home, parents still wonder: Do they understand the material? Are they bored? Are they losing confidence? Does anyone know what they need next?
“I do not just want my child in a classroom. I want someone to notice how they are doing.”
The Yes!School Gymnasium difference
Small groups change what teachers can do.
In a smaller class, the teacher has more chances to check in, adjust the work, and speak with the child before a small problem becomes a big one.
Strong academics without busywork
We teach the Ontario curriculum and go beyond it in literacy, math, science, and French. Children learn to read carefully, write clearly, and think through a problem before reaching for the answer.
Individualized learning, inside a real class
Small groups let teachers know where each child is, what they are ready for next, and where they need more time.
Care that supports the school day
Hot lunches, fresh snacks, early drop-off, after-school care, and adults who notice when a child needs a little help settling in.
Tell us your child’s age and grade. We will confirm the right class to ask about.
Ask About PlacementPrograms
Programs are based on your child’s age and grade.
Kindergarten
For children who need English confidence, real Grade 1 readiness, and support that respects the language spoken at home.
Elementary
For children who need English instruction, stronger foundations, more individual attention, and work that keeps them thinking.
Teaching children for the future
Soft skills are taught here on purpose.
Children still need strong reading, writing, math, science, and languages. But the future asks for more: clear English, focus, persistence, teamwork, independence, and the confidence to speak up.
English confidence
Children practise listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English every school day.
Soft skills
Focus, listening, teamwork, communication, and asking for help are treated as skills children can learn.
Thinking skills
Math, science, and literacy are used to practise reasoning, explaining, and solving problems.
Independence
Students learn to stay with a task, correct mistakes, and take more responsibility for their work.
A visit makes this much easier to judge.
