Statistically speaking, this is a pretty good school (I did grades 6-8). I did really well academically and all my teachers were awesome. Gotta say though, study body was terrible. An absurd amount of unnecessary competition and hate for straight up no reason (I wouldn't even say there's much racism, homo-/transphobia, etc etc, just random kids get bullied for no reason)

We have two children in the Lower House at Whitby and we could not be more thrilled with our experience. Our kids are happy, healthy, curious, thriving, developing, and engaged. They run into school every day. We have great relationships with the teachers and when issues arise, as they do, the teachers are all over it. The head of the Lower School is very accessible and knowledgeable.
