Future School is a co-educational independent school in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The school offers credit courses for students in grades 9 to 12 who seek their OSSD (Ontario Secondary School Diploma). The school is an accredited TOEFL and IELTS test center.{{fact|date=July 2018}}

History

The school was established in 1997 in Toronto, under the name Netskills College. The focus was on computer courses. In 2002, the name was changed to FutureSkills High School, to reflect the addition of high school credit courses to the curriculum. On December 5, 2016, FutureSkills High School lost its credit-granting authority.[1] The school was then re-branded as Future School in 2017.

Cost

Future School's full year (up to 8 courses) basic tuition fee is $14,500 for international secondary school students and $8850 for local high school students.[2] This does not include the cost of textbooks or tutoring.

Programs

The school was a credit-granting institution, certified by the Ontario Ministry of Education until December 5, 2016.[1]

The school has no age limit policy. This enables adult students to join Future School and complete their high school diploma. Students have the option of attending full-time or part-time through day school, night school and summer school programs.

Mature students who are unable to attend all the classes are offered fast-track classes through a variety of one-on-one lessons and online courses. A combination of one-on-one lessons and Internet based courses allows these students to complete accredited high school credits, without attending all the regular classes. Their major exams must be supervised.

Approximately one third of the Future School student body are international students, who can choose from a range of ESL courses (ESLAO, ESLBO, ESLCO, ESLDO, ESLEO) to prepare them for linguistic integration into the English-speaking communities. International students can prepare for and take their TOEFL or IELTS exam at their premises.

E-learning (Virtual School)

For those students who are unable to attend (live too far from school, or have medical issues), or prefer to study on their own, i.e., at their own speed, the school offers online distance learning version of most programs. This would be taken in conjunction with, and driven by the in-class curriculum as defined by the Ontario Ministry of Education. It is supported by regular online student-teacher meetings.

Fast Track Option

For those students who need to finish a course faster, or are unable to attend the regular classes, Future School offers Fast Track courses. Fast Track courses allow students to complete accredited high school courses, usually faster than the normal term. Where feasible, the course can be fitted to their own schedule. Fast Tracking does not mean taking short cuts.

The logistics of Fast Track studies is to cover all the material of a given course in a shorter time frame, using the following parameters:

  • The program must meet the 110-hour requirement, specified by the Ontario Ministry of Education.
  • There must be at least 10 hours of student - teacher one-on-one evaluation and planning time.
  • The remaining 100 hours must reflect the balance of the Ministry mandated 110 hours per credit. They consist of the normal scheduled classes, coupled with hours spent with qualified tutors.

The Future School's teachers set schedules for regularly monitoring and evaluating progress through quizzes, chapter tests, unit tests, projects, assignments and a final exam. These evaluations will be used towards the students’ final mark. Upon successful completion of each Fast Track course, the student will be awarded one credit.
