OSSD tuition · Grade 11
Grade 11 Ontario curriculum tuition
Grade 11 is where university pathways narrow. The courses chosen and the marks earned here decide which Grade 12 U-level courses a student is eligible for, and therefore which university programmes remain open. Most students find the jump from Grade 10 into Grade 11 functions and sciences the hardest transition in high school.

The hard three
MCR3U, SCH3U and SPH3U are the Grade 11 courses we are asked for most often, and the ones where a single term of consistent support changes the most. All three are prerequisites for Grade 12 courses that universities count. A student who reaches Grade 12 with shaky Grade 11 foundations spends the whole year paying for it.
Why Academy X
Taught by course code. Not by guesswork.
Your child isn’t struggling with “math.” They’re struggling with rational functions in MCR3U, in week six, with a test on Thursday. That’s the level we teach at.
Live, not recorded
Timetabled lessons with a teacher in the room. Recordings exist as a backup for a missed week, not as the course itself.
Batches of 3
Three students. Not ten, not twenty. Small enough that nobody hides, and every student is worked with individually inside the hour.
Assigned by course
Teachers are matched to the specific Ontario course they teach, and stay with that course. Nobody is handed a subject they last saw years ago.
In sync with school
We follow your child’s school calendar, so the class is on the unit their teacher is covering this week.
