Differentiated Instruction and Experiential Learning
Our teachers support diverse learners by developing a combination of teaching strategies that are responsive to all students’ needs and challenge them at their individual, appropriate levels. We recognise each students’ learning profile including their learning style, type of intelligences(s), learning preference or traits related to socio-economic or cultural background and take them into consideration when planning, teaching and evaluating courses.
Vineridge also provides ample experiential learning opportunities for our students through community involvement, extra- curricular activities, volunteering and workshops during or beyond school hours.
Due to the fast-track program at Vineridge, we provide frequent reporting to students and parents, allowing for early grade intervention. Students will receive the following monthly reports throughout the semester.

ESL Program target text
ESL PROGRAM
Vineridge Academy provides English language classes at five levels determined by the Ontario Curriculum. This allows international students to receive admission to Vineridge, regardless of their existing English level. Students with lower English levels start out with an intensive language preparation program until they are ready to add academic courses to their study plan. The length of time this takes, depends on the individual student as everyone learns at a different pace, but students generally progress well through the ESL levels.
