St. Jude’s Academy is a fully-accredited International Baccalaureate school, offering the entire continuum, from the primary years through to the completion of the high school. That’s a key benefit for the families who enroll here, principally because of the strength of the academic program and the international focus that it encompasses. The IB was developed to educate toward a facility with the core curriculum: language and numeracy, as well as interpersonal communication, creative engagement with others, and an empathetic view toward diversity within the global setting. St. Jude’s does all of that, including the values piece, which distinguishes our school within the IB community. The school promotes an understanding of our place in the world, as citizens, in the awareness that all other people, of course, are citizens, too, just like us.


Located on the St. Jude’s Academy campus, Oakwood Academy is the only recognized school in Canada using the Developmental, Individual Differences, Relationship-Based (DIR®) Model. Our school was developed to serve the growing need for individualized education programs that focus on emotional regulation, communication skills, social-emotional skills and supporting sensory systems.
Our unique developmental approach focuses on the child’s interest and social relationships to increase the student’s communication with others, and uses social relationships as the cornerstone of curricular development. Every aspect of our school is designed to meet the individual differences and needs of our students so that they can reach their greatest potential.
