MBCA works in partnership with RC Education providing an Integral Formation® which is an education model rooted in faith in Jesus Christ and sound Christian anthropology, leading us to be steadfast in our vision of forming Christian leaders. This educational model is shared among 154 schools around the world, and 11 schools across North America.

The MBCA curriculum does not include the Ontario Curriculum expectations. MBCA's curriculum expectations are adopted from RC Education which exceed the Ontario curriculum expectations and standards. All core subject areas such as Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, etc., are offered in the Canadian context.
Private schools are not required to use the Ontario curriculum unless they are seeking authority to grant credits toward the OSSD. MBCA is exploring its high school programs and course accreditation and hopes to expand to grades 9-12 in the near future.
Each subject area within our curriculum emphasizes different learning strands and benchmarks for student achievement. In addition, through small class sizes, educators are able to perform regular assessments and communicate directly with parents to report on a student’s progress. In addition to regular communication, educators provide progress reports/report cards three times a year, along with parent and teacher interviews twice a year.
During these foundational years there will be inaugural events and extra-curricular activities that may become available regularly depending on student interest, capabilities, and parent volunteers. While we cannot offer robust extra-curricular programs right away, we do encourage initiative and the opportunity to explore how to enrich our school community!
At MBCA we aim to keep class sizes small which will allow for individual support and the ability to adjust the educational plan for each student as needed. Parents, staff and administrators work together to design an educational model that fits the needs of your child in a encouraging and flourishing atmosphere.
Throughout MBCA's admissions process, an assessment will be offered for your child to understand his/her learning strengths and areas for growth. This allows our Admissions Office to understand the needs and capabilities of your child to determine if he/she is a right fit for the school and if MBCA is a right for your child and your family.
