When students finish the Ontario Secondary School Program they will be equipped with “the knowledge and skills they will need to lead satisfying and productive lives in the twenty-first century. The program will prepare students for further education and world and will help them to become independent, productive and responsible members of society.” (page 6, Ontario Secondary Schools Grade 9-12 – Program and Diploma Requirements, 199) Through curricular and co-curricular activities, our school will enhance our students’ education by developing their knowledge and understanding, their thinking and inquiry skills, their ability to communicate the knowledge they have learned and the ability to apply that knowledge.
In Ontario, students typically attend secondary school for four years, from grades 9 to 12 in order to earn an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). Students have the option of a fifth year if they would like to improve their 4U grades. The majority of our students study for two to three years in their home country before enrolling here at London International Academy (LIA).
In addition to our High School Program London International Academy (LIA) also offers a summer Cultural Exchange Program (CEP) and the 2+1 Friendship School Project.
Cultural Exchange Program (CEP)
Each Summer London International Academy (LIA) runs a Cultural Exchange Program (CEP) between the months of July and August. Students between the ages of 11 and 17 will come to Canada to learn about the culture, improve their English, and visit North America’s top tourist destinations.
There are three different programs to choose from:
CEP students make significant progress with their English. All students must take a placement test (Pre-Test) at the beginning of program, and a final examination (Post-Test) during the last week. Both the placement test and final exam will be divided into two parts; listening and speaking, and reading and writing.
Based on test comparison the average rate of improvement for all students is 9%. This increases their original English grade level from Grade 4 to Grade 5 in the Canadian Education System.
Classroom Atmosphere
The classroom atmosphere at the London International Academy is friendly and relaxed but very productive. Most classes are quite small and students are given extra personal attention, this is especially true in language instruction.
The positive classroom atmosphere is intended to make learning a pleasant experience for both teacher and student. For students at our school the classroom atmosphere is so positive that most of our students actually want to come to class. The classroom atmosphere is comfortable, however the primary purpose of all classes is to develop academic excellence and this is always the primary focus of each and every class.
