HEAD'S WELCOME

Brockton School’s mission is to inspire the growth of outstanding humans. Brockton is a highly-respected, inclusive, and innovative school that offers a comprehensive and robust academic and extended day program while prioritizing the holistic development of its learners. Brockton students are inspired to be self-aware and purpose-filled individuals who learn to thrive in a diverse and dynamic world. They are are both challenged and supported to pursue their personal dreams whilst contributing in a positive way to their greater community/society.

Brockton is a school that will not be distracted by comparison; instead Brockton is a school driven by its unique purpose. Brockton maintains a philosophy and approach that allows for authentic connections with, and service to, every student, every family and each, and every community member. Students are known, challenged, and supported as unique individuals, with unique genius, on a unique journey. Everyone at Brockton is somebody and has an opportunity to thrive. The diversity of the student body at Brockton is an absolute strength that  invites students to think beyond the traditional boundaries (e.g., creators, innovators, and leaders of tomorrow). The commitment of the faculty and staff to the Brockton students, the Brockton community, and the Brockton mission is entirely exceptional.

Brockton is one of a select group of International Baccalaureate (IB) World Continuum Schools hosting all four of the IB Programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), Diploma Programme (DP), and Career-Related Programme. Brockton offers educational programs starting in the Early Learning Years (Pre-Kindergarten) through Grade 12, and maintains connections and opportunities for Alumni thereafter. Brockton offers specialized courses and programs, taught/led by specialist teachers, coaches, and mentors. Within these courses and programs, Brockton innovates to provide our students with what they need today and with what they will need in the future. By inspiring students to reach for their personal best while promoting a holistic and meaningful sense of being, come graduation, students will be situated to pursue their post secondary aspiration of choice; and, even more-so, they will be situated to pursue a life of passion and purpose. Brockton is quite simply a magical place to be.

As you look through our website, I hope that you will get a sense of what it means to be part of the Brockton Community. It is indeed my honour to serve as the Head of Brockton School and I am joined by a truly dedicated and highly trained staff, an extraordinary and diverse student body, a welcoming and engaged parent community, and an extended community of alumni and friends/partners. I welcome you to explore what makes our school so special; I invite you to explore the genius and magic of Brockton.
