Building Academics and Self Esteem

As a result of an academic assessment and evaluation of a student's teachability, a BASE level is determined. A BASE level indicates the number of students which would allow the teacher the greatest opportunity to provide instruction appropriate to each student in the class. The largest number of students per teacher is twelve. Some classes, however, have eight to ten students with a few classes as small as five or six.
The reason why St. Jude's School insists on such a small pupil/teacher ratio has been well documented over the last five decades. Research has proven, beyond question, that there is a direct correlation between the amount of instructional time and the rate, quantity, and quality of learning that occurs. Simply stated, the more time a teacher teaches a child the more the child learns. Many of our students, as a result of their two or three years at St. Jude's, have doubled or tripled their learning rate.
The BASE levels follow the Ministry of Education's recommended courses of study from kindergarten to grade twelve. St. Jude's School is inspected by the Ministry of Education. All promotions and credits earned are recognized and accepted throughout the Province of Ontario.
St. Jude's students advance to a post secondary level of education on an equal or better basis of comparison to any student from every other province and/or public school in the province.
