[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don't believe there are big differences academically. [/b] The issue comes down to the environment your child can thrive in. As long as the bigger enrollment at TC (3,594 at TC vs 800 at BI) and less emphasis on values (pressed on students at Ireton, not public schools), then that's what the decision should come down to.[/quote] There definitely is a difference in the academic standards between the two. For example, up until this Fall, students at TC received a 40% for homework even if they did not do any homework. At Ireton, if you don't do homework, you get a 0. The grading scale at Ireton is a bit tougher as well. [/quote]
