Ridley College is focused on educating the whole child and provides students with tools that will help them lead flourishing lives. Our coeducational boarding programme was established in 1889, making Ridley one of Canada's oldest and most prestigious schools.
At Ridley, you will discover "World Prep", a rigorous and forward-looking programme that prepares students for university and a promising future. Ridley offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum which consists of the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme.
In addition to the IB Programme, Ridley offers the Ontario Secondary School Diploma and a variety of summer programmes, including an EAL credit course. Together with its exceptional academics, students experience a diverse co-curricular programme comprised of arts, athletics, leadership development and community service.
Ridley graduates matriculate to some of the most prestigious universities in the world, including:
Guided by its motto for over 135 years, Terar Dum Prosim, which translates to "May I be consumed in service", Ridleians have year-round opportunities to give back to their communities. Through engagement in service, students can cultivate their passions, explore new interests and reach their potential in a supportive yet challenging environment.
Ridley's traditional House system is one of the school's defining features. Both boarding and local day students are integrated into ten distinct boarding Houses on campus, each with its own sense of community and unique identity. By incorporating local day students into the boarding programme, every Ridleian can learn more about global cultures while enjoying a uniquely Canadian experience.
