Shaping Bright Futures – The KTA Difference
Students at KTA are afforded the distinct advantage of very small class sizes, which allows for high levels of personal attention and academic support. Flexible, ability-based groupings allow children to work within their zone of optimal growth. A student who is advanced can extend their learning, and a student who requires more time to develop a skill is provided with adequate time and support to do so. KTA learners recognize their individual strengths and are able to work towards their potential.
The school delivers exceptional research-based literacy and numeracy programs supported by high quality materials that are often costly and difficult to access in most settings. Students have more instructional hours per academic year than most schools, both public and independent. More hours of instructions means more time to be academically inspired, to grow and develop and to practice skills to mastery.
KTA’s Montessori-inspired curriculum creates agency and independence in our young learners and reflects a philosophy of teaching children in the way that they naturally learn. School days are infused with Jewish traditions and values that form a strong foundation to both ground and inspire and to honour our students’ identity.
A world of opportunity awaits at KTA…

Program Highlights
IMMERSION
Immersion is an instructional approach where the second language serves as the primary medium of classroom instruction. It mirrors the natural process of acquiring native language.
HEBREW IMMERSION
At KTA we engage in reading books and singing songs in Hebrew during lessons and meal times. Dedicated segments of the day are led by native Hebrew speakers, ensuring a complete and enriching immersion experience for both native and non-native speakers of this vibrant language.
FRENCH IMMERSION
In Canada, speaking French opens up opportunities as well as opening up pathways in the brain and expanding a student’s worldview. At KTA we foster French language development through engaging and interactive approaches within a supportive environment. The French language is brought alive through songs, high quality literature, visual supports and language modelling that promote fluency.
BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CARE PROGRAM
KTA is in the process of acquiring a Before and After School Care program license to accommodate parents and provide a more flexible work schedule. Children can begin their day as early as 7:45 AM and stay as late as 5 PM.
