Private schools exist in every province and provide
an attractive alternative for families seeking an overseas education
for their children. Many of Canada's business and political leaders
are graduates of well-established private schools. All private schools
must be registered with the Ministry of Education in their province
or territory, and must meet the curriculum and other standards set
by their respective ministries. Families can choose schools that
are boys-only, girls-only or co-educational. Some private schools
offer full boarding programs, others are day schools, and many offer
both. Many private schools adhere to a particular religious faith,
emphasize particular moral teachings and apply rigorous academic
standards.
