It is an ok school. Students achieve high grades however the amount of teachers that leave the school or dont come in for some reason is unbelievable. They do not have enough supply teachers to cover and when they do the supply teachers do not know what they are doing. I go to Oasis Academy Don Valley and from my personal experience, i have no teacher for ETP( ethics theology philosophy) and do not learn...
