Discover how TPS can help your child start strong, be known and go further.
A Strong Beginning at TPS
The earliest years of school shape how children see themselves as learners. At TPS Elementary, children will build strong foundations in literacy and numeracy while developing curiosity, confidence, positive friendships and a genuine love of learning.
Small classes will allow teachers to understand each child’s strengths, interests and learning needs. Through close relationships and purposeful instruction, every child will be appropriately challenged, carefully supported and encouraged to take an active role in learning

More Than Academic Achievement
TPS Elementary will combine strong academic foundations with a nurturing, thoughtfully structured environment that helps children develop responsibility, respect, empathy and healthy habits. Children will learn that mistakes are a natural part of learning and an opportunity to reflect, try a new approach and grow in confidence.
Our approach recognizes that academic, emotional, social and physical development are interconnected. By supporting the whole child, TPS will help children develop a strong sense of self, positive relationships and the skills to become increasingly independent learners.
At TPS, success begins with helping every child feel known, capable and excited to learn. It is reflected in the knowledge, confidence and character children develop throughout their journey.
One School. Every Stage.
Established in 2009, Toronto Prep School has built its reputation on strong academics, small classes, personal attention and meaningful relationships. The Elementary School will extend that same commitment to younger children while creating greater continuity for families from JK/SK-Grade 12.
As children progress through TPS, the learning journey will evolve with them: from foundational literacy, numeracy, confidence and positive learning habits to the study skills, academic independence and personalized university preparation for which Toronto Prep is known.
