Urban Academy is an affordable, academically-enriched, arts-infused independent school. Our students are guided by caring, dedicated teachers to strive for academic excellence, compassion towards others, and to develop their innate capacities for creative problem-solving. We are a destination school with students from New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver, Coquitlam, Surrey, Richmond, Maple Ridge as well as other international cities.
We expect high standards from our students. Our class sizes are small allowing us to personalize our learning environments and pay attention to the motivation of every student. We work collaboratively with parents so that students receive a consistent message about the importance of a high quality education. Our students are powerful thinkers, communicators, and engaged risk-takers.
Engaging and motivating our students is one of our main points of focus. Our arts-infused approach to learning helps each learner to make a deeper connection to subjects like language arts, mathematics, science and social studies. We also support student inquiry. Students ask questions that they are interested in and are supported to answer their questions during their inquiry units. We believe that learning should be engaging, relevant, and thought-provoking.
