Bayhill Education Programs

Small Wonders
our Preschool consists of an exclusive half day program for children between the ages of 3 and 5.

Combined with daily lessons and activities based on the Ministry Expectations for students in Kindergarten, the goal is to create a play and learning environment that provides your child with the opportunities to develop early literacy, numeracy and school readiness skills.

Our teacher directed philosophy recognizes that early learning is critical to the development of children and helps in establishing a foundation for future learning and behaviour.


Homework Club
Bayhill’s Homework Club is an after school tutoring program offered to students in grades 1 to 8.

Skilled teachers work with your child twice a week (or more depending on his or her needs) in one hour blocks of time assisting with the understanding of concepts taught in school as well as test and exam preparation. Additional instruction is also provided based on the individual students needs.

Study skills are emphasized with the end goal of making your child an independent learner.


Academy Program
The Academy Program is an enrichment program designed for students in grades 1 to 8.

The mission of Academy is to broaden the scope of current public and private school education by providing your child with an academic experience beyond the classroom using Bayhill’s proprietary curriculum and other internationally recognized resources.

Students meet twice a week (or more) with Bayhill teachers in one-hour blocks of time. Academy seeks to promote student learning beyond the current educational grade standards.


Advanced Program
Our Advanced Program consists of a combination of homework assistance, test and exam preparation along with enrichment programming for students in grades 9 to 12. Secondary school students meet twice a week for one and a half hours with Bayhill teachers to review and aid with school work along with establishing a solid set of study skills.


Prep Programs
Bayhill offers two Preparatory Courses: SSAT Prep and SAT Prep.

Most private schools require that students write the SSAT, a standardized test that measures student's verbal, reading and math skills. Our SSAT preparatory course will prepare students by teaching specific test taking strategies, study skills as well as writing a 5 paragraph persuasive essay.

The SAT Preparation Course offered at Bayhill is for students seeking to apply to universities or colleges in the United States. Our SAT course will prepare secondary school students by focusing on test taking strategies, study skills and essay writing.

Both the SSAT and SAT preparatory courses are based on a recognized program of study and are offered throughout the year for an established amount of instructional hours.

The objective is to prepare students by introducing them to the unique format of the test and teaching them specific test taking skills and strategies in order to achieve the best possible test scores. Valuable study skills are practiced and learned in these comprehensive courses.

Education and Learning, for a Bright Future
