At Dewey College, we understand the challenges that lie in store for students. Our mission is to support students with the challenges they face and to help them reach their goals. As the former Head of Private Schools in the Ontario Ministry of Education, I know how important it is to choose the right school for your child. Parents who select this College can have confidence that we will strive to guide their children in making wise decisions so that, after their studies here, they will gain admission to a Canadian university or college and that they will be successful graduates.
We provide a rich language environment at Dewey College where all teachers focus on language learning and take every opportunity to help students practice English. The College fosters students' skills and teaches them to solve problems independently and with the support of others.
We, at Dewey College, believe that it is critical to teach students to apply what they learn, which results in a balanced education - a balance of knowledge and application. Teachers encourage students to use their judgement in applying their knowledge to a problem. Applying what you know has to be tempered with knowing how to apply what you know and this means using your judgement well. Good judgement is the key to success in life.
Dewey College encourages students to be diligent in their school work, to persevere through difficult times, and to do their best. With the guidance of teachers and of the College's administrative staff, students will reach their port of dreams, sailing with the wind and sometimes against it. But sail they must and not drift or lie at anchor.
